Observation details
We saw more than 100 whiskered tern feeding near to Beach sides, and Noticed that one has a black upper wings, so we started focusing it and took as many pic we can. And after reaching home, checked with field guide and as per guide "In winter, the black patch on sides of breast and dark ear-converts are pointers" which pointers are matching for the species. Also Praveen J, checked with Bill Harvey (who been extra critical about Terns), and he commented like below... "Very good shots of an adult in winter Plumage"
