Little Jet fighters
This afternoon there were a couple of terns zipping around the salt marsh making me dizzy trying to follow them.
These tiny, super fast flyers are always a fun challenge to try tracking as they swoop and dive in search of their prey.
The terns almost look like miniature fighter jets as they blast their way around the marsh at hyper speeds.

I do love seeing the terns, nice captures of those fast little terns. Yes, I agree, fighter planes of the sky.
Thanks, they sure are quick little guys.
Nice shots of the quick little beggars. They are definitely a fun challenge to capture.
I get a bit dizzy trying to follow them but it us fun.
Molto belli questi scatti. Bravissimo Phil
Ciao, Pat
Grazie Pat!
You did great to keep up!
Thanks, they keep me on my toes and it’s good practice too!
Beautiful set, Phil! Thanks!
I’m very happy you liked the terns, thanks much!
These are fantastic pictures of these incredibly fast little birds! You never fail to amaze me, that you can get such great pictures of them, Phil!
I appreciate that Maggie, thank you!
Beautiful shots, and yes they do resemble jet fighters, but are much prettier…thanks Phil
Oh yes, much prettier, and less lethal too. Well, unless you are a fish. 😉
They certainly do. Great captures.
Thanks for checking these out and glad you like the terns.
Beautiful flight shots.
Thanks a million!
These cute little guys definitely look like they are build for fast moves, darting, and all things involving speed. Really nice captures here!
They really are built not just for speed but for maneuverability. They do zip around. 🙂
