Sterna hirundo
Sterna hirundo, also known as the common tern, is a graceful seabird found along the Croatian coastlines.
With its distinctive white plumage, forked tail, and sharp, pointed wings, the common tern is a beautiful sight soaring above the Adriatic Sea. These birds are skilled hunters, diving from the air to catch fish with impressive accuracy.
During the breeding season, they create nests on sandy beaches or rocky areas, adding to the coastal charm of Croatia. Let's cherish the natural beauty of Croatia and protect the habitats of these elegant seabirds.
