As I had applied for and received a permit to shoot in a tern breeding colony last year, I was able to get some neat shots that I wouldn't typically have been able to aces.
This particular shot is of a common tern hovering above it's nest, just after it had dropped off a sand eel for it's partner to feed to their newly hatched chick.
The light was still a bit harsh, but I liked the wing configuration on this particular image.
Nikon D2Xs, 500 AFSII lens and TC14EII TC, f8 @ ISO 320
