I was standing on a bridge at the Oceanside Marine Nature Study Area on Long Island, NY looking south and chatting with our friends HT and KD when there eyes lit up and one of them said a turn is coming in behind you. I walked a quick circle around my tripod, composed and zoomed back a at the same time before I took these two images. And then it was gone. I had much more time for the brand goose and the osprey.

They are all great, but the two Tern images are exceptional, Morris. Exceptional, in particular considering that you had very little time to capture them.

Thank you Chris,
There is rarely a much time when it comes to terns as they are so fast. Yesterday morning I was on the beach photographing a colony of a few thousand. I had a blast.

Terrific set Morris, very well done on those first two, that's a hard bird to get a decent shot of.
