Arctic Terns

Image | Posted on by Alex Nancarrow

Arctic Terns have the longest migration of any animal, traveling 22,000 miles every year. They go from Alaska down to Chile, and back up again. These Terns weren’t particularly happy to sharing their island with me while I was camping on it a while back. I believe they were protecting some of their young, and would dive at me whenever I got close.
