Atlantic White Tern
Atlantic White Tern: 28–33 cm, wingspan 76–87 cm, ethereally white seabird with blue-grey bill, blue orbital ring, and large dark eyes. Breeds on tropical Atlantic islands including Ascension and Saint Helena; related species widespread across the Indo-Pacific. Nests on bare branches with no nest material. Feeds on small fish near the surface.
Silver Gull
Silver Gull, 36–44 cm, is Australia's most familiar gull, present year-round on all coasts and increasingly inland. White body, grey mantle, red bill and legs. Opportunistic omnivore; thrives on human food waste and follows fishing boats. Expanding range inland as irrigation provides new habitat.
