Terns ID, Salalah, Oman, December 2022 (1 Viewer)

Hello! I took this photos in my trip in Oman. This photos taken in different days and two different locations in Salalah. I think that photo 01 might be lesser-crested tern, and 02-04 Great crested. But birds in photo 04 look like two different species. But I'm not sure.

like you say:
01 Lesser Crested
02-04 Greater Crested Terns (with Slender-billed and Sooty Gulls in the background, pic 04).
