Hi,
I am have a great deal of difficulty trying to identify some Terns from peninsula of the West Coast National Park north of Yzerfontein.
Although some appear to have yellow tips to their black beaks, they also have red legs of varying lengths, so I trhink that rules out Sandwich Tern as they have black legs(?) I was wondering if any of these were Roseate or Antarctic Terns rather than migrant Common and Arctic Terns. Is the tern in flight a Damara Tern?
Many thanks for your help.
