I was hoping for a seabird out on Prior's Fen today but this smashing little juvenile Arctic Tern was worth braving the strong northerly wind for. It flitted past me looking ghostly white before landing in the field nearby. The wind made digiscoping almost impossible but this shot wasn't too bad considering.
