Here is a photo (I think) of one of them with an arctic tern behind for comparison.
The key points to note are:
- Overall whitish colour to upper parts
- Tail streamers that extend well beyond wing tips
- Dark edges to outer primaries
The bill and leg colour is clearly different to the arctic tern, but the bill should be black with a possible red base. In this bird the bill appears to be a 'dirty' red colour throughout its length.
I would be interested in anyones comments, currently I have this down as a 'rosy'.
