            Leser Noddy Facts -

The lesser noddy is a small, tropical tern with dark plumage, a whitish-grey head and a long, dark beak.

The nest of the lesser noddy consists of a sturdy platform of seaweed, held together by excrement.

The diet of the lesser noddy consists of small fish and squid, which it picks from the surface of the water.

The lesser noddy may eat fragments of coral before breeding, possibly as a source of calcium for producing its eggs.
