A Lesser tern male (sternula antillarum) attempting to court a female in Marco Island, Florida, USA.

Summary

[edit]
Description

2nd in Series

When the Least Terns start to gather around their nesting ground, the females are still catching fish themselves. A male brings a fish to the area and tries to feed a female. Most times he is spurned. The female stretches up and raises her beak - the very opposite to the mating position. The male may persist but eventually will fly off to try to find a receptive female.

Ensure that removed information is present in the image description page and replace this template with {{Metadata from image}} or {{Attribution metadata from licensed image}}.

Caution: Before removing a watermark from a copyrighted image, please read the WMF's analysis of the legal ramifications of doing so, as well as Commons' proposed policy regarding watermarks.

If the old version is still useful, for example if removing the watermark damages the image significantly, upload the new version under a different title so that both can be used.
