Arctic Tern / sterna paradisaea

Arctic Tern in flight, taken on Inner Farne island off the coast of Northumberland, England.

Two Nordic Sterns flying over the water of Jökulsárlón gletscher lake in the south of Iceland. The Arctic tern (Sterna paradisaea) is a seabird of the tern family Sternidae. This bird has a circumpolar breeding distribution covering the Arctic and sub-Arctic regions of Europe, Asia, and North America (as far south as Brittany and Massachusetts). The species is strongly migratory, seeing two summers each year as it migrates along a convoluted route from its northern breeding grounds to the Antarctic coast. Recent studies have shown average annual roundtrip lengths of about 70,900 km (c. 44,300 miles) for birds nesting in Iceland and Greenland.
