Common Tern - Sterna hirundo
Results for Britain and Ireland 2009
(excluding Channel Isles)

The results page for each species includes a summary of the first arrivals and last departure localities and seasonal records by week. In consultation with RBBP any records of this species in March to July are currently considered as confidential. Whilst this errs on the side of caution, and may therefore hide some passage records, it is aimed at preserving sensitive nesting sites.
