Happy for my tern

 Friday evening along with a small group of experienced NTGG ringers I helped ringed 14 Common Tern chicks and colour ring some more Black-headed Gulls (yellow) following on from the other week at the same site. I did think the BHG chicks were smart but was blown away by the Tern chicks-superb. Some Tern chicks were to small to ring but the total number is higher than last years which is great!  As always with ringing just a few images taken with the camera as it's more important to return the birds quickly and safely.

I used the 35mm lens again which is small and easy to use. All images set at ISO 400 f7.1 1/1600

Thanks to Paul R and Paul H.......
