Observation details
This bird appears to have not yet completed its full breeding plumage, hence incomplete black cap and some black on tip of bill. Small bill, overall grey colour, and long tail streamers noted. I also witnessed the classic angelic feeding stoop of this species, a sharp contrast to the ungraceful and sloppy feeding I've seen with the shorter tailed Common Terns, which I've studied in Bermuda for about 11 years.
