Sandwich Tern
Audubon
painted the Sandwich Tern in the Keys on May 26, 1832.
"On asking the Wreckers if they had been in the habit of seeing these
birds, they answered in the affirmative, and added that they paid them
pretty frequent visits during the breeding season, on account of their
eggs as well as of the young, which, when nearly able to fly, they said
were also good eating."
