White-winged Black Tern at Farmoor



6 Sept - Some free time after work this afternoon, very blustery conditions, and a short detour to Farmoor and good scope views of the smart juvenile White-winged Black Tern - dark mantle, pale wings and white rump (photos, copyright Oxon Bird blog) compared with the accompanying juvenile Black Terns. Some impressive waves on Farmoor in the wind, and a large flock of hirundines struggling to feed over the water.
