Good in-flight shots, the bill looks massive for this tern, nice colours and details Paul, well done.

That is an incredible looking bird! Love it. Reminds me of a skimmer a bit. Great flight shots!

Awesome captures of a bird that i have yet to see one IRL. The yellow bills really stand out. Nice job Paul.

Where in the world did you capture this bird? Excellent shots, I thought I had seen most of the west coast terns.
