Tern-ado!

Our Trip


Daddy, Mommy, me and Liam went to Plymouth. When we were driving there we saw the Mayflower boat and Pilgrim Rock.  We walked far for miles!!  And we saw baby Piping Plovers and the grownup Piping Plovers and when we got to the end where we were going to find the Black Skimmers a person was walking in front of us and all the terns flew up and it was a tern tornado!! There were Common Terns and Least Terns in a Ternado (like Sharknado!!!)!! We saw 2 different hooded gulls.  We saw Laughing Gulls and Bonapartes Gulls. We saw Laughing Gulls that looked like they were having a meeting. When we were walking further down and we saw two black birds. And my dad looked at them with the Binoculars and said there were two Black Skimmers not one. I took pictures of the Black Skimmers, Least Terns,  Piping Plovers,  Common Terns, and the Laughing Gulls. and a flight shot of a Common Tern and a Laughing Gull. Then we were done with our birding trip!
