Unfortunately in this version Grok gave the bird two tails! On close inspection many AI generated videos have these weird ‘hallucinations’ which is an interesting artifact of the pattern-prediction process. These will become less common as models mature.

The scene depicted is Dingle Harbour, Co Kerry. Elegant Tern with Sandwich Tern found by Ed Carty and the late Frank King, October 2002.

I had to flip the image horizontally because Grok kept giving me sun rise rather than sunset. For anyone who knows Dursey this perspective is more correct for sunrise 😀
