Nicely caught shot, you have held the whites well in the light conditions, only small nit would be the horizon is a little off and needs to rotate clockwise a little.

Would have liked to see the subject a bit larger in the frame. The bird is also facing the wrong way for the light so you're not getting an eye catchlight. Terns are usually quite busy birds, so you might have been able to get it flying off and returning in a different direction with a bit of a wait.
