The catch and the landing pose make this image, Karl!
While I like the inclusion of the two chicks in the frame it'd be ideal if they had eye contact with their parent ... May be in your next frame?

Very nice action here Karl. Would have liked to see a bit more of the chicks in the frame but this works
well also.

Wow- this is really fun. Unusual to see just the 2 heads waiting for a meal-I really like this!

Great looking incoming pose with a nice fish in tote. The techs and details look great too. I would remove the other Terns if you dont have more of them to show. Well done Karl
