Brown Noddy Tern Facts | Baja Wildlife Guide
Dark brown with a white forehead, the brown noddy tern frequently feeds with pelicans, often trying to grab fish scraps coming out of the pelican’s bill as water drains from it. In an effort to get a more optimal position, this tern has even used a pelican’s head as a perch. This bird, which is 1.27 feet long with a wingspan of 2.5 feet, nests year-round in tiny colonies located in caves and on cliffs.
