Thank you very much, Mike! You know with cameras operating like machine guns nowadays, one of those got to be right, haha!

I still say, the great majority of the credit goes to the photographer, who gets the focus, and knows when to push the button. :grin:

Really nice couple of shots, Shalu. The tern is looking at you in the second photo thinking, "no way are you going to grab my snack."  :p

Thank you very much, Mike. Maybe it was saying "don't look at me, the catch is quite small, kind of embarrassing" :p
