Black Tern

Black Terns are Uncommon from May-August.

Habitat

During migration, it uses large lakes, extensive marsh lands, and coastlines. 

Behavior

Black Terns swoop to pluck food from the water's surface; they rarely plunge-dive under the water. They will also forage in flight, snatching flying insects out of the air. Highly social, they often forage in flocks.
