Roseate Tern: York County, Maine, USA, June 2024 \u2014 There were three species of Terns actively feeding at the mouth of one of our local rivers on Sunday: Roseate (pictured here), Common, and Least. The sand eels were plentiful. I set out to try to capture the diving terns and terns rising from the water, and the OM System OM-1Mkii and M.Zuiko 100-400IS zoom did well, even at 800mm equivalent. Any faults in the photos are user error \ud83d\ude42 This is Program mode with my custom birds in flight and action modifications. 16.7 frames per second in SH2 mode and 1\/2500th and 1\/2000th of a second. The hardest part was keeping the bird in frame as it dived and continuing to keep it in frame as it rose. The Roseate Tern tail features are a treat. Processed in Photomator. <\/p>\n
