February 25, 2021

I am known as a Royal Tern
In non-breeding plumage I look like Danny Devito
When I'm breeding I have full head of black hair
Sometimes it's better to go incognito.

(When I wrote this, I pictured a post-breeding male on the Maury Povich show saying, "I am NOT the father, that guy had a full head of black hair!")

Special thanks to Tanya R. for the Danny Devito comparison!
