Mélanie Monjanel – “Like the arctic tern that migrates south, I always return to Croatia”

My name is Mélanie and I would describe myself as an artic tern, as well called the “sea swallow”. Like me, Artic tern are passionate travelers, every year they migrate from pole to pole. During the cold arctic winter, the arctic tern flies south, following the summer season all the way to the Antarctic Circle. They are thought to have the longest yearly migration of any animal.

They are social birds, foraging in groups and nesting in colonies. These small, slender gray and white bird with a black crown are as well big romantics, they mate for life, keeping the same partners.

Being now part of Biom, I hope to learn about all the secret of bird’s life and share them with as many birds passionate as possible!
