Description
These white tents were placed throughout the Least Tern Nesting Area by the Audubon to protect the Least Tern juveniles from the sun. Even though there are plenty of tents to go around, the birds have a favorite one in the center of the beach. It can get pretty crowded at times with the young birds diving over each other to get in, almost like a mosh pit.
The parents will deliver fish to the outside of the tent, standing patiently until their chick darts out to gobble it down.
These images were captured along the Mississippi Gulf Coast at the Least Tern Nesting Area in Gulfport, Mississippi.
