Tern parent brings back a big fish for their chicks
Tern parents bring back a big fish for their chicks occasionally. Watch as the parent playfully makes the chicks chase the fish, even though it's too big for them. If the chick drops the fish couple times, the parent will take it to the ocean for a quick wash.
