Little Terns Caister Dunes

Walked along the beach today to see the Little Terns , previously ive seen 50+ flying just offshore but today there were only six, two were landing now and again just inside the fencing, i watched them for a bit, they were flying along the shoreline between Elm Beach Dunes and Caister Camp Dunes, fishing just offshore, as i walked along, two landed right infront of me on the shoreline, needless to say i didnt have my camera, and a bit later one was hovering about a foot offshore brilliant view, no pics sadly tho, it was lovely listening to their chattering, and seeing them so close.
The Ring Plover which previously the other week seemed to be nesting and paired up was alone, but seeing as the beach was crawling with dog walkers and dogs off lead no surprise there.
