Good afternoon,
I don't ahve any field experience with Arctic Tern, so I won't comment as to the ID. But I will point out that the bird is not a juvenile as some have stated; that term implies that it hatched this year (2007). Rather, it is in First-Summer plumage, which means that it hatched maybe 11 monnts ago (2006).
Best regards,
