小黑枕羽翼一旦長成，
親鳥會帶牠到魚穫豐富的地方，
一來方便餵食，不用自己長途往返，
二來可以遠離燕鷗島這個大目標，避開游隼。

After the Black-naped chick has fledged,
its parent will lead it to a place where fishing is easy.
In addition to saving the effort in flying to and fro,
leaving the tern island also means keeping away from predators such as the Peregrine Falcon.

Lovey photos!

Interesting that one of the Roseate Terns appears to show a dark tip to the bill.

Cheers
