Aerial Assault

[Jay Tan]

The Black-naped Terns are taking turns to attack the heron for coming near the nesting colony on the rock island. These little guys have no fear and continued to harass the heron until it gave up and flew away.

Great action and composition you had here. The light could have been more flattering, but then, we can't have everything, can we?!

Jay,
Where was this?

[Philip Lombard]

Super capture.

[Tony Whitehead]

Good action and composition - light was challenging but gives nice detail in the tern wings

The behaviour is depicted perfectly here. A bit sombre light-wise, but it adds to the mood in this case (maybe just brightening the heron a bit would be good).

Jay,
Fantastic capture and composition. Love the landing pattern of these little guys. :)

[Haim Ziv]

Amazing and great action.

[Kirk Benson]

Great capture, I like it a lot just as presented. Well done.
