    This is one from the Isle of May, where the terns are now getting prepared for their migration flight to the Antarctic.

    Very pretty pose you have here. I like the way the tern looks against that green background. Wish we had a little more details in the black but overall this is very appealing.

    Very nice pose, good sharpness, and an attractive green BG. A little more eye contact would definitely improve the image, but an overall solid frame.

    Hi Will, lovely pose with the raised outstretched wings and fanned tail, and you certainly nailed the exposure on the whites. Those red feet pop so well against the white tail feathers.

    Did have Dennis. I cloned it out. Well spotted. They seem to ring lots of birds on the Isle of May.
