SANDWICH TERN
This tern is the tern of the sea. In the salt-pans themselves, it can be seen only exceptionally.
During the winter, however, it is always present on the sea in front of the pans and at places where the larger salt-pan channel drain into the sea. In spite of the fact that it breeds in salinas in the neighbouring Italy, it does not occur at the Sečovlje salt-pans during the breeding season.
