Bridled tern




And....ACTION!

Mum, dad and Junior Osprey /In a recent visit to Low Isles, volunteers noted the lack of a full osprey nest. The resident caretakers report that mum and dad have systematically dismantled it; perhaps a gentle ploy to encourage junior 'out of the nest'. One can see that all that remains on the supporting grid are a few sticks and some coral. Mum (could be dad) is eating a small fish.

Mimic octopus

Bridled Tern Egg / Colonies of the bridled tern also nest on the Low Isles. These endearing birds with their puppy-like yapping call will lay their single speckled egg in leaf litter, on sand, and even on the veranda boards of the assistant keeper’s residence.
