I'm Here , And I'm Hungry

[Joe Senzatimore]

Not having learned to fly or fish this Common Tern made no bones about calling out to the adults to bring it back a meal.

Cropped a bit off left side for comp.

I see they are growing fast. Very sweet light and sharpness. You owe me some real state at the bottom for the virtual feet :)
Good head angle and nice catch light. Very good whites too. Although I like vegetation in the images, not sure I like the placement of this little plant here.
TFS, Joe.

Nice behavior captured here, Joe. Just a little tight on the bottom. This is one of my favorite stages of the common terns.

Joe, I love the way the feathers look so neat and tidy. Agree w/ room for feet. Very nice light in the eye and sharp details.

[Axel Hildebrandt]

I like the calling pose and little plant. Adding to the other comments, I might remove the dark spot above the upper mandible.

[Gal Shon]

Very good light ,exposure, HA and pose.
Agree with the need for some more room for the legs.

[Arthur Morris]

I like the open bill and the plumage and the sharpness. Ditto Fabs on the bottom and the vegetation.

[Joe Senzatimore]

Thanks all for the comments. I cropped this tight on the bottom to eliminate some junk that would have taken a long time getting rid of in another fashion.

Lovely calling pose with the open beak, and in good light too. Another vote for more room at the bottom.
