After seemingly weeks of cloudy, foggy, cool, rainy weather; Saturday morning dawned with the glorious sun burning its way through the fog. The warm morning light highlighted the new growth and spiders web on the evergreen.
Spending the day fishing on a local lake I noticed an unusual bird circling about. At first I thought it was a gull as they infrequently are seen here but I was even more surprised when a closer look revealed it to be a Tern, a species that I don't remember ever observed at this location.
Checking my bird references I believe this to be a Common Tern however if this is wrong please advise.
Gorgeous Tern shots.
ReplyDeleteGreat sighting, the terns are pretty birds. And very cool to watch fishing.
ReplyDeleteThese days the sunlight is more rare than most birds.

Lovely! It's hard to capture sunshine, but you managed to do it quite nicely. I love that last shot of the tern.
ReplyDeleteTerrific shots of the Tern. Love the last one.
