Some resemblence with the adult. With the late and cool spring this year all is delayed and they will hopefully stay a few more weeks. They need to grow up and learn to fish before the migration south.

Two cracking shots of this lovely tern. Never seen the juvenile before. Surprised to see an all dark bill. Informative post, tfs.
