August 2, 2021

I am a juvenile Royal Tern
Unlike my parents, I have bars on my wings
In addition, my legs are yellow, 
But sometimes shade can obscure such things. 

This is the answer to yesterday's mystery bird. Kind of a trick question as the Royal Tern was also last month's mystery bird, but I wanted to keep you all on your toes:-)

Location: 
Royal Palm Pointe Park, Vero Beach
