I take it that everyone now are in agreement that this is a Least Tern, and again, my apologies for not including more images in the original post. Lou, I think that additionally to the possible early hatching, you should not forget the strong abrasive action of the local sun (and from whatever effects that have on the air -- ozone? Plastic and rubber disappear really quickly around here).Sue, you gave this a much more thorough look than I could expect, you need to complement yourself instead of the oppocite. Again, thanks everyoneNiels</blockquote>
