Arctic tern??

 

[two_lens_jackson]

A quick google seems to suggest it's an Inca Tern

those are fantastic shots of a great looking bird nice

Nice clean subjects, with the second one, shame the details are a bit blown on its back and would have loved to have seen them taken from a little lower down, for a more intimate shot. Of course that's my HO

Presumably the birds that have a ring on them are married then?

Nice shots all the while however.

Yup, it's an Inca tern, presumably at the Living Coasts in Paignton (well worth a visit)

The white is difficult to expose for as said. First works well, but I'd prefer a lower view on the second.
