Hachero, C.V. 1967 White-capped Tern (Aren tenuirostris) March 19 Lagoon Island Five or six birds were carrying nesting material into the ironwood tree near camp. Several had what appeared to be leaves from Ispora sp. March 20 Kizinoaki Island Birds found nesting in Ironwood (Casuarina) while they seem to prefer and Scorpula. Small stage from new first construction to nearly fledged young. About 30 nests with eggs, 5 with small downy young + 10 with nearly fledged young were observed. These northern birds do not employ plants from the reef as much as the ones on the southern sides (Phoenix + Divis do) do perhaps because such plants are not as abundant here. Materials used: Scorpula, Crospostia, Tarkila, Broderania and several types of seaweed. One nest of recent construction contained five small Portuguese man-o-war. The majority of nests were saddled on branches in forks. One nest was found nearly suspended in the "ree" of several small branches arranged in a manner that is reminiscent of the Red-eyed Terns (Kites) leaves from a morning glory were also used in construction of their nest. Total population around 350 adults to 500 adults March 21-23 Southeast I., Pearl + Hermes Reef 5 birds roosting on island (night of 21st). Occasional birds observed during the day. No notes.
