Common Tern Chick - Video - Nickerson Beach, NY

Slow-motion video of a Common Tern chick getting excited as the parent flies in with food

I recorded this video at the Nickerson Beach last Summer. As you can hear, there are hundreds of birds nesting there. During Summer months, this is what you hear all day long while on the beach 🙈 But these are the sounds I miss all winter😍 Even now, beach doesn’t feel the same without these birds. Everything will change in upcoming weeks though… Would you like to be informed when is the best time to visit the beach? What birds I find most interesting to photograph? Follow my Location Updates
