Turning to spring - first Sandwich terns 30th of March

First Sandwich terns seen at Lindisfarne National Nature Reserve on the 30th of March. These are the first terns to be seen in the spring returning from their migration. They often like to feed and roost around Goswick. If you see large flocks on the sand please give them space as they've made an amazing migration and need to feed and rest before breeding.
