The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- This bird has a circumpolar breeding distribution covering the Arctic and subarctic regions of Europe, Asia, and North America.
- The species is strongly migratory, seeing two summers each year as it migrates along a convoluted route from its northern breeding grounds to the Antarctic coast for the southern summer and back again about six months later.
- Recent studies have shown average annual round-trip lengths of about 70,900 km for birds nesting in Iceland and Greenland, and about 48,700 km for birds nesting in the Netherlands, while an individual from the Farne Islands in Northumberland with a light level geolocator tag covered a staggering 96,000 km in ten months from the end of one breeding season to the start of the next.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Arctic tern article was read about 110,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 71 and blocks with 81: each hit it takes is cut by 32 %.
