EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a pair of exquisitely detailed royal tern (Sterna maxima) egg specimens against a pristine white background. The royal tern, also known as the Thalasseus maximus or Thalasseus, is a large and elegant seabird belonging to the Laridae family, which is part of the larger Charadriiformes order and the class Aves. The royal tern is easily identified by its long, slender, and elegant body, cream-colored underparts, and distinctive black cap and bill. These birds are often found in coastal areas and are known for their distinctive, mottled brown and cream eggshells, which are displayed in this studio shot. The oval-shaped eggs are a vital part of the royal tern's life cycle, providing nourishment and protection for the developing chick inside. The intricate pattern on the eggshells is a result of the calcium carbonate and other minerals that make up the shell, as well as the unique microscopic structure of the eggshell itself. The royal tern is a fascinating example of the Sauropsida class, a group of animals that includes reptiles and birds. The term "Sauropsida" comes from the Greek words "sauros," meaning lizard, and "opsis," meaning face, reflecting the fact that these animals have a diapsid skull, meaning they have two openings at the back of the skull for the temporal arteries. This print is a must-have for any avian enthusiast or collector, providing a stunning and educational glimpse into the world of the magnificent royal tern and its intricately patterned eggs.
