Fairy Tern dive sequence<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

In November 2019 I was lucky to again spend some days working with Fairy Terns \/ Tara iti<\/a> at Waipu. I managed another good collection of images illustrating behaviours and have been working through processing these with the aim of publishing a couple of posts to share them. Images from my post on the homemade groundpod<\/a> were also from this trip up North.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The latest edition of New Zealand Geographic has an excellent article, Fallen from Grace<\/a>, by Kate Evans with outstanding photography by Richie Robinson<\/a>. I thought the timing was good to share some of my recent photos from the last breeding season. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This photo shows the young male that I photographed in 2018 diving for a fish. Last time I saw him he was a bachelor male but this season had found a mate so was active courtship feeding which was great to see. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This sequence was captured with the Nikon D850 with battery pack at 9 frames\/second and then stitched in Photoshop after batch processing the RAW files in Lightroom. Lens was the Nikon 500mm f5.6PF.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
