Yesterday morning I observed the adult ELEGANT TERNS feeding on small
"baitfish". I assume them to be anchovies which have been plentiful around near
shore and bays in Nestucca area in the last weeks.
The fish appeared to be about 3-5 inches long, slender, and silver/blue in
color. The juveniles followed the adults calling "sip sip sip" when a fish was
captured. Food was exchanged after landing on water.
