Just like these Royal Terns, I am flying off. I have never before reposted a photo (and apologize for doing so), but time constraints make this the easiest way for me to say good bye. I am off for a trip and will be back in three weeks or so. I wish you the best for the new year and thank you for your flickr friendship.

Bird identification is a totally new endeavor for me but, thanks to the internet, I think these terns are Royal Terns (Sterna maxima) rather than the more expected Common Tern. Royal terns are located only on beaches, such as this one is SE Florida.

Just a quick simple shot of the old hop kiln. Sorry, I have not been able to better keep up with your photos recently, but I do plan to catch up!
