Hi Phillip,

Nice shot of the Tern with a nice BG, the Tern obviously like's the perch but I don't I'm afraid.

Regards

I do like the perch, it's telling the tern which way it should be heading in the next week or so .

Nice shot.

Hi Philip,
Love the pose with the raised wings and I like the perch too.Adds a bit of extra interest to the scene,and also a bit of mystery,leaving the viewer wondering what the letter S stands for. :cool:

Hi Phillip

Nice shot, not the perfect perch but certainly different. Love the pose and your exposure looks spot on!
