British Birds Set 5 British Terns
These beautiful slim line seabirds, with swallow like features and wings as sharp as knives, are native to our British coastlines.
A sad decline in numbers, mainly due to the take-up of beaches and spits for holiday homes, has resulted in breeding pairs falling since the 1930s. With clutches mainly laid amongst fine shingle and shells, these eggs display a remarkable ability to camouflage with their surroundings.
A stunning array of all over blotching and scribbles with each species having its own unique stone coloured ground make this a delightful example of nature at its best.
