these pics were taken in the Bundaberg Botanic Gardens in Feb '12
I believe a non-breeding Roseate Tern - comments please

I think this is a non-breeding White-fronted Tern. They look more sleek than the Common Tern and have the pale wingtips.
Cheers, Owen.
thanks Owen
White-fronted Tern was my 2nd choice but head shape and Bundaberg location leaned me towards RT

My mistake Peter, I didn't even consider Roseate and I didn't notice your comment. This looks much more like a non-breeding Roseate than White-fronted. Sorry for the confusion
Cheers, Owen.
thanks Owen
I always have quite a few pics that I have not yet identified so all help is appreciated
