Seen at Stockton Sandspit Newcastle NSW - which tern is it please.
I think that is a Gull - Billed Tern in breeding plumage. It in range, has the dark beak, and has a black cap pulled over the eyes, plus it's spring!
Tegan - Melbourne Vic.
x2 Gull-billed Tern.
Kippa-ring, Qld.
Thanks Tegan and Paul - my thought was also a gull billed tern, good to have it confirmed.
