L is for Laridae (#Skimmers, #Noddies, #Terns & #Gulls). Of the 105 species found worldwide, 59 have been recorded in the U.S. and Canada. From the tiny Least Tern to the massive Great Black-backed Gull, this group inhabits almost every corner of the planet. What’s your favorite?
A is for Anatidae (Ducks, Geese, and Swans). Roughly 172 waterfowl species grace the globe, with 71 recorded in Canada and the U.S., including Hawaii. From toned-down teal to wildly ornate Wood Ducks, this family stuns. Which waterfowl wows you the most? 📸: Chris Roberts
