The Little Terns at Beacon Ponds have made a remarkable recovery, but they need urgent help to thrive in 2026. Your support can fund a professional warden, ensuring these birds are protected from threats. Please share and contribute if you can!

Little Terns at Beacon Lagoons
11 months ago
The glorious weather has allowed us to carry out our first colony walkthrough of the season. An astonishing 91 Little Tern nests were counted, which is the highest count for the protection scheme (previous highest count of 70 in 1996). We're keeping everything crossed for a record-breaking season!

Seeing as how the action figure pack is in vogue just now, was sent this earlier. Seems legit eh - maxed out credit card, bird guide for those tricky to ID common birds that never usually get looked at, sat nav, twat Quattro, and half a brain...............

Well working from home paid off today with a White tailed eagle added on to the house list. It was tracked down the coast and thanks to 30+ p/off buzzards telling me it was coming my way.
