Common Tern

[Bill Dix]

Bringing dinner for junior. From Nickerson Beach, late one afternoon in August. I needed to move the bird to the left to give him/her some flying room.

D7200, 500f4 + 14 TC, ISO 800, 1/3200s @ f/7.1 manual; Gitzo and Mongoose.

It is a lovely image Bill. Beautiful light with tack focus and lots of detail. It is not easy to get a clear eye with Terns as it often blends into the black patch on their head so well done.

Excellent image of beautiful bird with nice fish in the beak.

Excellent image Bill! I like how the tern fills the frame, sharpness, details, exposure and fish.

Thanks everyone.
