Long-tailed Jaeger (1/5)

CHARADRIIFORMES: Stercorariidae

Stercorarius longicaudus  

This bird remained distant before landing on the water on the horizon. You can only imagine the frustration when it finally came closer, I zoomed in on it, pushed the shutter only to discover my battery had gone flat! Moral of this story, recharge battery the night before any birding trip!
