Tern up for the books

A brief interlude on Thurs PM allowed a quick wander around Cosmeston Lakes late afternoon. I wasn't expecting any decent birds, just wanted some fresh air before tackling roundabouts in the rush hour with a nervous pupil. I had nearly completed my circuit of the larger lake, when a small, but familiar shape appeared low over the water. A quick look though the bins revealed another Black Tern. I phoned it in and later put it on GBC website. I received a text from Wayne Strong this PM. It's his local patch, and he's never seen one there...ooops! Apparently it's only the 2nd or 3rd record ever there.....

Hmm . . . how many more 'Tern' puns can we come up with?!?! I can think of a few but I think I'll 'Tern' them out when I see some more Terns - no point in wasting them!
