Thank you Justin and Anthony for your kind words.
While at it, might as well thank you for your feedback on other tern/sparrow threads I have posted this morning.;)

Thank you, he actually did. In the process he got himself a nice tasty minnow which had changed his outlook on life. On another thread of mine this morning ("Good life"something) he is shown happily dashing away carrying his meal.:D

I am looking for the other two in the sequence where the Tern hits the water and then flies away.

See the thread "Life is good, after all" above. Not exactly what you were looking for, but close enough.;)
