Tern--near Ireland

A common tern (with a tiny fish) captured from very high on our ferry from Hollyhead in Wales as we approached Dublin, with an extra of the Irish coast.  We took the train from Euston Station to the western edge of Wales, and then the huge ferry (I'm not sure I've ever been on a bigger one). 

We reached our hotel just in time for the Euro 2016 match pitting Germany against Italy. Germany dominated for much of a "cautious, grueling"* match. After it ended in a 1-1 draw; the Germans finally won the concluding penalty shootout 6-5--it was the craziest one I've seen, going 9 rounds with 5 missed/rejected shots!
