Arctic Terns

And so it is that Arctic terns have very bright bodies. And they have glasses that are really good although these glasses at one time weren't the tern's. It was the Sabine's gull that had the glasses. The gull gave its glasses to the tern, but when the gull wanted its glasses back the tern didn't want to give them back.

And the tern flew away some place catching lots of food, and the Sabine's gull who had good eyes now couldn't see very well any more.

The Arctic tern was a dangerous predator because it was very good at catching its own food and at fighting enemies. The tern will dive dangerously.

It will dive at any kind of bird even while it is flying in midair and try to get them.
