Why it matters
The Atlantic White-Tern is notable for its striking, ghostly plumage and its unusual nesting habits, as it frequently lays its single egg directly onto tree branches rather than in a constructed nest. With its distinctively pointed wings and forked tail, this bird is highly valued by observers for its graceful, buoyant flight patterns over tropical and subtropical oceans.
