Common Tern (Sterna hirundo)
Common Tern (Sterna hirundo)

Taken from the dam at Cropston Reservoir. Leicestershire. Only a couple of terns (1 adult and 2 Juves) on the railing.
Mostly Black-headed gulls in various plumages, a couple of juvenile 'large' gulls, there where 2 adult Lesser black-backed Gulls.
Sitting on the railings very close to the dam wall, and trying to get a decent background proved difficult.
Landed quite close I thought it would go to the screaming juvenile but it didn't, eventually it flew of still holding the fish, Perch I think.
