p.1 #1 · Turning terns: little or fairy?

I found these terns diving in one of the lagoons in Sydney. Are these Fairy Terns or Little terns? The only distinction between the two seems to be the darker areas on the tips of wings.

Quick things that are not scared to just dive in. I will go back to catch some water entry images.

I think they are Little but you may know otherwise?
