wow... wonderful :) After these last few days when I stubbornly trying to catch a flying bird and could not get any solid shot, I respect even more these type of pictures. it is not easy to catch it at all ;)) mariana @ 2010-07-25
Your bird photography is absolutely terrific. So inspiring. Can't imagine how heavy a 500 mm lens is to carry around...but I'd like to give it a try! Marcie @ 2010-07-26
Great shot Richard. I love the angle of you have achieved, rather then the traditional "looking at bottom of bird" photograph. Do you know the species of Tern? It looks like what we call a Caspian Tern (Sterna caspia) in NZ. Glen Webber @ 2010-07-26
