    Default Tea time at the Common Tern household

    It is rather an unruly affair, as the adults want feeding the same time as the kids.

    The second shows the Tern coming in for what turned out to be many approaches to avoid the other adults on the raft.

    Both photos taken a Thatcham lakes, a first visit for me, but certainly won't be my last.
