Arctic Tern (Sterna paradisaea), Rotary Park, Lake Havasu, Mohave County

This Arctic Tern was photographed by Keith Kamper on 13 July 2022.

Arctic Tern is a casual migrant anywhere in Arizona, with fewer than 10 total records for the state.

Short legs, a short, mostly straight black bill, black trailing edge to the primaries, and no dark "wedge" as would be present on Common Tern.
