Thanks John and Denis.  This is a challenge for me and I don't usually make myself practice too much :)
Thomas - our outing was planned to shoot terns skimming.  Most times they were doing it facing away from us, so no shot.  It is interesting to watch.  I didn't get one coming up with a fish though!  They are so loud, especially the juveniles.

Thanks very much Bobobird, Anotherlook and Meghan.  These were taken in Hamilton, along the lake.  We went to get the terns skimming.
