Common Tern - Breeds all around the British coast. Aggressive birds that will mob any intruders who come nearby. The Common Tern feeds by plunge-diving for fish, from either the sea or freshwater lakes and large rivers. Here are a colony of nesting Common Terns photographed from the Dublin to Liverpool Ferry crossing and Derby UK. Also some images from the UK andS'Albufera region of Majorca Spain.
