Field Notes

Description:

Medium sized white bird with small black markings on its body and wingtips. It has a long white tail that flips up in the wind and a red beak.

Habitat:

Reefs, island nesting area (where i saw it), cliffs, beaches

Notes:

The island that i saw many of them on is a small island in Antigua named Bird Island because many birds including Red-Billed Tropicbirds come there to breed and nest.
