What a lovely series. Please consider adding this spotting to the Animal Architecture mission at http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/8082... The egg is in a "scrape nest" which doesn't look like a nest at all, but is in fact constructed by the parent(s). Thanks.

The chick is adorable. But is it definitely a bridled tern baby? It's so spotty!
