In 1979 I became aware of a colony of Little Tern
Sterna albifrons breeding on the
partly developed artificial site at Port Botany, New South Wales. The colony was studied
in 1980-81, 1981-82 and 1982-83 to determine breeding success, to collect data relating
to the artificial site, and to identify factors that threatened the colony. Runners were
banded to determine breeding success, and to identify Little Terns originating from the
colony which may be retrapped or collected in the future at any location.
