This Royal Tern flew by at lose range as I walked along the beach here on Sanibel yesterday.
I'm continuing to see how Canon's 400mm f/2.8 II works hand held for birds in flight. It seems to work very well but I wonder if the 600mm f4 II would be a better choice. They weigh about the same.

ISO 1600
