    Default Tiny Terns

    These are one of our smallest Terns in Canada, as they are smaller than a Robin. Quite hard to get in flight as they fly low, and change direction frequently, and quickly. Also the adults are quite dark, so hard to expose perfectly. Finally got a couple worth showing.

    Both are delicious captures. I favor the second shot for the reflection. Really well done.

    I think it's an orchestrated effort on her behalf to make the rest of us look like slobs. Please, Marko...once again the need arises for a "jealous button".

    Yes, Marko, I concur with Barefoot's request and wholeheartedly support it. We should have Buttons on here ... a "jeaolus" button would get a high work out, a "please clue us in how you did this" would be another option ....

    Second shot is absolutely stunning. A winner.

    Thank you all so much, as this is actually more fun, than work for me. Just glad that some others enjoy this type of photography also.
