A juvenile tern was fishing at Ardmair on this very windy day when it was virtually impossible (at least very unpleasant) to walk on the beach; so I just watched and snapped it from the car. I still couldn't hold the camera completely still as the wind was rocking the car!
A violent shower of rain sent the tern to the spit, where it preened and rested....
....until a common gull chased it off the rock and I lost it. I didn't see it well at the time and the pics are rubbish, but I'll see if I can work out if it's common or Arctic.
