Information: Video of the sandwich tern waltz. Sandwich terns per-form a dance as part of their courting ritual. As well as impressing the female tern with his dance moves, the male also offers her fish as part of his courtship.

The sandwich terns shown are at Coquet Island seabird sanctu-ary, off the coast of Northumberland.
