There have been many huge feeding frenzies along the Central California Coast in the last 2-3 weeks. This tern was one of many along with Pelicans, Gulls, Cormorants and Sooty Shearwaters feeding close to shore in Cambria, Ca.

Nice catch for this tern.
You cannot save time, you can only spend it wisely, or perhaps, freeze a moment of it forever in a photograph

Nice flight shot, the two fishes with their eyes visible is a nice bonus.

You did a nice job capturing this action. I've tried capturing something like this with some Elegant Terns that have ventured north recently and it's really challenging. I'd settle for one fish, as I haven't even seen one with two. Nice.
