§A Scoop of Skimmers§

~true bird fact~Distinct among all North American birds because of his super unusual bill, which has a longer bottom than top. It's also super thin and sharp. A skimmer's main way of hunting involves flying just above the water with his bottom mandible dipping down, spearing fish at the surface. He fishes mostly by feel, enabling him to do this even at night.
