With the site now fully installed and the wardens starting, it is exciting to see so many Little Terns back in the area. In the glorious weather over the weekend 138 adults were counted roosting on the beach, flying over the mirror-like seas and around the breeding pens. Courtship has been observed with some scraping following. Look out for the courtship flights in which the pair fly closely in tandem in an impressive arc through the sky. Occasionally they forget people are watching and fly right past, transfixed on each other!
With the onset of wardening, this is a great time to get involved, at the start of the season. Any members of the group and public are invited to assist the wardens with their duties. Any help is gratefully received and will continue to support this, the last (and therefore most important!) colony in Wales.

Indeed, even today, notwithstanding the improvement of cutting edge polymer fencing and electric wall, wire fences in the entirety of their varieties actually rule. It is assessed China and India alone produce more than 5,000,000 miles of spiked metal a year. That figure does exclude the large numbers of miles of different sorts of wire fencing delivered every year that went along behind spiked metal.

In some rough areas, stone was utilized to outline little fields and yards. The wealthy bought fashioned iron fencing to isolate their possessions from the preletariat. A developing working class utilized picket wall around their homes and yards. Obviously, these wall were either costly to procure, or physically serious to make, introduce, and keep up with. Domesticated animals like steers, ponies, sheep, pigs, or goats for the most part made some simple memories breaking out of such boundaries.
