Arctic Tern
Arctic Tern Sterna paradisaea
1DII, 300/2.8, 1/3200 @f/4, ISO320

Haven't had much time to go out shooting recently so thought I'd drag something from the archives - taken on a rare blue sky day back in summer!

Gonna have to get outdoors and onto the moors again and find some grouse :rolleyes:

I've just turned a subtle shade of green :biggrin: Fantastic shot and kinda makes me glad I didn't sell my 300 2.8. Having tried unsucessfully earlier in the year to get a decent Tern image full credit to you for this image, great skill. Was this taken from land or were you on a boat?
