Artic tern with chick

An Arctic Tern (Sterna paradisaea) on a perch south of Anchorage Alaska. The Arctic Tern breeds in the arctic regions around the world and winters in the Antarctic, making at least a 19,000 km (12,000 mi) flight between the two twice a year, mostly over open ocean; thus, this bird has the longest migration and sees more daylight than any animal on earth.

It is a bird very close to the little tern and its differentiation is particularly difficult except in good observation conditions. However, some morphological criteria allow for its distinction, particularly its more compact general silhouette due to its smaller and rounder head, its shorter beak, its somewhat elongated body disposed on extremely modest feet.

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.
