oops and juvenile

Use what talents you possess; the woods would be very silent if no birds sang there except those that sang best

Hi Heva, nice photos I especially love the second one of the Pacific Gull. The colours in its beak are amazing.

A nice trio of shots, Hev. I haven't been to Mordialloc since the Arctic Tern was seen there. Are there any Terns at the beach?

Hi george, no I didn't see any Arctic Terns, when did you spot them there?

It was late(ish) last year, I think, when one Arctic Tern made Mordialloc and Beaumaris its home. There were plenty of other terns there such as Crested, Little, White-fronted and Common. Here's a shot of the Arctic Tern.

Nice shot George. Last year at point cook I saw a common tern with crested terns.
Well at least I think it's a common tern.

Cheers, Owen.
