The world’s most beautiful Tern

Young Peruvian bird photographer Alfredo Fernandez is keen as keen, always chatting with me about birds on Facebook.  I was not surprised that he shared yet a couple of more Flickr albums with me.

I totally melted with his Inca Terns. And then he said, let me know if you want to use any.

Here it is Alfredo. Your photos featured in Birdingblogs Saturday issue. Enjoy everyone. And check out Alfredo’s other photos on this Flickr page. This kid is promising.
