Common or Forster's?


This tern was at White Lake on Saturday, 4/23, but I'm undecided if it's a Common or a Forster's. The tail does extend past the wingtips but the underparts don't look exactly white. Any ideas, thoughts, or opinions? Thanks.

It looks like you have a Forster's Tern because of the lack of black on the primaries.
