I captured this trio of Royal Terns on an overcast Sunday morning on Miami's South Beach. They are seen here in there non-breeding plumage. These birds were part of a larger group of maybe 50. They are use to people and had a comfort zone of maybe 10 feet. I noticed little identity rings around the ankles on a few of them. The camera was hand-held. I sharpened it along with some other minor adjustments with iPhoto. I also like to shoot with the camera in the vivid mode at this time of day, especially if I expect to see some wild coloring as I did here in the bird's beaks and sky color. Hey............. it's the tropics Mon. Enjoy!
