Bird of the Month

We hope you enjoy these birds as much as we do! We've selected some of our favorite birds for our Bird of the Month feature, starting with the Arctic Tern featured on our web site. The thumbnail images at the bottom of our web page contain links to each bird's article on the Cornell Lab of Ornithology's All About Birds web site. We have used open source images from Wikipedia for the thumbnail links.
