You've removed a lot of the original reply in your edit which gave more context, but at the risk of going round in circles on what's left following the edit the reviewer clearly accepts you can identify an Elegant Tern so for a lot of people it's going to come across as not really a big issue.It is likeliest to be an elegant tern. Given reports of two in the area, and given that a lesser crested tern is very rare in the region, I think I have a strong case for the identity of the bird.
