As I mentioned before, a lot of the birds were nesting while we were on Lord Howe Island. It made for magnificent bird watching. The dunes were closed on this beach to protect the eggs but you could walk to the beach and the birds would hover above you.
It was blowing a strong wind, so they'd be almost motionless as the wind pushed back against them. It was such a joyful thing to experience, even for a non-birdwatcher like myself...I had dragged my husband there and he was amazed too.
Such a beautiful series of photos!

A marvelous experience. You may not be a birdwatcher, but you obviously are an appreciator of the beauty of nature and the arts.
ReplyDeleteI'm no help sorry on what types of birds they are, I think we have mutton birds here though
ReplyDeleteThat is a lot!
ReplyDeleteWonderful shots, Betty. I know these birds as terns, but as you say there are lots of different species by the same name and also the same species can be called by a different name! Thanks for hosting.
ReplyDeleteWhat amazing photos! I can't identify the birds to species level, but they definitely look like some sort of tern to me!
ReplyDeleteWow, wonderful photos!
