Inca terns being silly



These terns apparently do this a lot--did NOT seem to have hanky-panky in mind...(I WAS watching for a long time!)

Ha,ha,ha, I think they are doing something else but that's natural. Birds are God's creatures that exude beauty and grace. Like the wind and the trees and all of nature, they give praise to the Creator of all. Thanks for the post. God bless you always.

Lorraine--It does look like a very bizarre dance--but they must enjoy it--thanks for the sweet comment!

Mel--Yes, you're definitely right about the beauty and grace--especially when they are flying! These birds were in a very large screened-in aviary, where they had lots of room. Blessings to you too!

Not a familiar bird to me...But I have seen pigeons doing the same -- fun in a mundane world, i guess :)

Devika--I never heard of this bird either until I saw it in the zoo--by the way, theose white lines on their faces actually stick out, like "mustaches"!

Pat--yes, but what if they are both boys? (or girls)? Maybe they know something we don't.
