The little tern recovery project is a five-year project funded by Life+ Nature and led by RSPB. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY OF THE RECOVERY PLAN FOR THE LEAST TERN CURRENT STATUS: The interior population of the least tern (Sterna antillarum), a breeding migratory bird in mid-America, was listed as endangered on June 27, 1985 (50 Federal Register 21,784-21,792). It aims to increase the number of little terns successfully breeding at project sites and raise awareness of the habitat requirements of the species and what beach-goers can do to help.

Susan Rendell-Read, the EU LIFE little tern project manager said, ‘We achieved what we set out to do laying the foundations for long-term recovery but the future for little terns is by no means secure. Adults have bright yellow with black mottling on armpits, groin, and backs of thighs.

The tadpoles are pale golden-yellow to iridescent green. Further funding is urgently needed to build on the lessons learned over the past five years and to make sure that our coasts remain a welcoming place for this wonderful seabird.’.
