NWHI day 4- Tern Island

Today was our plan was to visit Tern Island, one of the two Islands we were scheduled to see. Tern Island is situated in the French Frigate Shoals, the largest atoll in the Northwest Hawaiian Islands.

There are 18 species of birds found here and today we got to see them. They are so curious and interested in us that they even pooped on my camera bag. I got some of the best bird photos ever and even got to see some monk seals catching tan. A couple divers jumped in the shallow water to snorkel and saw big uku in 5 ft of water. I am anxious to jump in the water!
