Lol, what a brilliant picture of this seeminly unconerned tern. I have several friends that if I told them they had a spider on their head they would go into hysteria and probably would not be normal the rest of the day! Brilliant work Brian! TFS!!!!!

LOL, Brian ... something like that happened to us when we visited Bharatpur during Monsoon Season ... came back with swollen legs with lots of marks ...
 
Of course I'd love to join you on that day, m8!!! What could be more fun?!!!
Wonderful photo!
Looking forward to the "crawling" photos! LOL!
Cheers!
