A late afternoon call from Ivan Lang from the local Pagham Harbour Nature Reserve telling me there was a mega on Chichester Gravel Pits had me heading there without delay. Having got to Peckhams Copse just as the bird had gone to Ivy Lake, a brisk walk soon located this splendid summer plumaged individual.
Alas, it was not the easiest bird to photograph as a stong Easterly force 6/7 was blowing, it was fast moving, mixing with other terns and the other side of the lake!
