Arctic Tern?

Thank you for your answer.i thought it might be an artic tern but I was not sure at all.Joelle

I think the bill and leg colour makes this a Sandwich Tern, Joelle. But wait for a more informed reply

Arctic. Sandwich would have a "less clean" division between black and white on the head, a half crescent below the eye, paler upperparts and a black margin all around the tip of the wing, not a clean black trailing edge.

Agree with Arctic
