Roseate Tern profile

Cape Hatteras Point; NC

You can see how the Roseate is altogether paler than the Common, especially the primaries from this angle. The long tail didn't always show up well against the sand, and one of the Roseate's had a shorter tail, which still extended just past the wingtips though.
