Media notes
Fledgling at colony. This grown-up chick was approached carefully rowing in a small boat. However, most of the chicks were eaten up by herons this year! Sooner the gulls finished breeding, so the terns stayed on the island alone, with no support of defence from the "bigger brothers" to finish second breeding. They were an unfortunate subject to predation by herons and harriers, so effective hiding was essential for the fledlings. This one did well!. Elevation: 86 m. Date added to IBC: October 29, 2018.
