Good news from Brooms Head, NSW north coast.
4 young Little Terns have reached the flying stage at a site where nesting has
been hampered in the past by trail bikes, walkers, horses and foxes. Last
year the Pied Oysertercatcher pair raised a young. The previous year Fox
tracks were found leading to the empty nest where two eggs had
been observed earlier.
The fox baiting is working and although small
numbers of birds are involved the future is looking good for this site, which
may attract greater numbers of Little Terns in the future.
Regards
Greg
