I'll tell you what mate, it doesn't matter how much you delve into things like birds or planes or cars or anything for that matter. There will *always* be one guy who can narrow it down. Especially twitchers. Is it a bird? It's a tern. It's a lesser crested tern. It's a lesser crested arctic bearded tern. It's a juvenile male lesser crested arctic bearded tern. It's a juvenile male lesser crested arctic bearded tern with avian mixamotisis. It's a juvenile male lesser crested arctic bearded tern with avian mixamotisis in early spring plumage with constipation and a bit of it's left leg missing in full flight, bit of left rudder and about to do a shit. It doesn't matter what you say or how much you know, birders will *always* vie for the last word ;-) Just keep going with the great shots mate - wonderful to see you exploring new aspects of your photography. -- Cheers, Cotty ___/\__ || (O) | People, Places, Pastiche ---------- http://www.cottysnaps.com _____________________________ -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
