Arctic Terns on the move
27 Apr 2012
Many Arctic Terns moved through the country this week, reflected in both the map and reporting rate of BirdTrack records. Whilst the majority of records have been at inland sites so far, Arctic Tern is a coastal breeder; birdwatchers taking part in the Wales Coast Path Birdrace 2012 on Saturday 5 May, for example, will have a good chance of recording this species. The event is being organised by Visit Wales to help launch the Wales Coast Path, and participants should look out for Arctic Terns returning to their breeding grounds in the north.
