Next comes a representative of my favourite tern family, the "marsh terns"!!!

A fabulous flight picture you've taken of him JJ - many thanks for showing him to us my friend.

An excellent shot JJ. As Ove says, the eye highlight makes all the difference: it breathes life into a bird photo. Thanks for sharing!
 
A first-rate Whiskered Tern flight capture, JJ! Haven't seen this species since many years ago in Hungary.
