Cape May Point State Park ~ More Chick Time

This was a banner day for me as I found 2 Least Tern chicks.  There also were lots of Least Terns still sitting on eggs so hopefully they will have a good year for the chicks.  Today, one of the parent's brought in a fish for this little one.  The chick gamely took the fish but couldn't eat it due to size.  The adult tern then took the fish back, ate it and flew off.  Baby tern was very unhappy about it.  I sit on the sand while observing them watching them through my bin's.  Then I use a telephoto lens to take my pictures.  Hope to get back there soon.
