    This guy/gal buzzing the colony did not make the terns and skimmers too happy. No prize was captured. The Black Backs had better luck as there were 2 or 3 juvi skimmer bodies on the beach. Just natures way.

    It certainly caused a stir... Really like the wing position but I think a little too much S/H on this as it is washing some of the details.

    In addition to the above comment, I would add that I wish the beak didn't merge with the far wing. If there's enough detail to crop tighter on the bird, I'd be tempted to crop.

    Joe, how many bands does that bird have on? Is it possibly a lost falconry bird?
