Hi LWO,
 
Thanks for sharing the photo. It is interesting to see our old friends in other countries. The weather seemed fine and the sea was calm, and you have a firm base for your telescope!
 
Terns in Hong Kong are under threat from human disturbance. Do you have a similar problem in Thailand?
 
Any other tern species?
 
 
Regards,
Tern Group

Hi Tern Group & Forrest Fong,
 
Sorry , I forgot to put the date that I took this photo.
 
I took this photo and my first time saw this spp. when I went to Surin Island on middle of April last two year.
 
I interested on Black-naped Tern in other countries as HongKong too. Thailand is the mainland but have long peninsula and many island. We have many Tern spp. almost are visitor. Black-naped Tern is the one that resident in Thailand. It's likes to staying in island more than mainland.
 
Besides, Black-naped Tern I saw one adult breeding Roseate Tern that mix in Black-naped Tern flock also.  Anyone have the photo of  Roseate Tern in breeding  Plu?    
 
 
Yes sir! Terns in Thailand were under threated from human disturbance; collecting eggs from the fisherman and tourist when visit to island.  
 
 
Best regards,
lwo

Thanks LWO for the info.
 
Roseate Terns used to breed in Hong Kong the results fluctuate from year to year. They had some success in 2003 but there was none last year. Hope they can raise some chicks this season.
 
Below are some photos taken by members in 2003:
