As large as a big gull, the Caspian Tern is the largest tern in the world. Its large coral red bill makes it one of the most easily identified terns throughout its worldwide range.
Call a raspy "kowk." Juvenile begging call a high pitched whistling; heard frequently during migration and in winter.
Flies over water with bill pointing down; plunges into water to catch fish.
