Isles of Scilly Seabird GroupThe group
is involved in seabird ringing throughout the Isles of Scilly, aimed at providing
additional information on the size, distribution and seasonal movements of local
seabird populations in support of other conservation monitoring activities, though
the group also engages in more routine monitoring work. The Group also successfully
cleared one of the larger, main seabird breeding islands, Samson, of Brown Rats,
Rattus norvegicus, work which the Isles of Scilly Environmental Trust
has since extended to additional key seabird islands. The group operates with
the agreement and at the discretion of the Isles
of Scilly Wildlife Trust. For further information on the Group’s activities
contact the secretary. | | | | |
