The arctic terns which we have given geolocators are doing well. This one had a watch over its chick and this gave a good photo opportunity.

A detail picture taken through the telescope shows the magnificent red legs of the tern. On the left leg it is wearing a standard bird migration metal ring of Stavanger Museum. Numbers showing are 738. On the right leg, the bird has a yellow plastic ring with two holes and a tie rap attaching the geolocator.
