Common Tern In-Flight

Nikon D1h, 80-200mm f/2.8 AF-S, TC-14e, Incident Metering, f/5.6, 1/1250, Auto WB, Auto Tone, Handheld.

There's a short foot bridge across the estuary at Bolsa Chica that routinely over-flown by Common Terns. Though there are tons of opportunities, my success at making acceptable images of these wonderful birds was low. I think this was mostly due to their very erratic flight profiles.
