“Fisheye perspective”
by Filip Jarzynski, The University of Edinburgh.
“The relationship between Arctic Terns and Sand eels is incredibly close. As part of my work as a warden at the RSPB reserve on the Skerries Islands, I have been monitoring which species of fish the Arctic terns bring in from the sea. The data is collected every season and can give a deep insight into the state of fish stocks. This season, the tern's main food source were Sand eels, but later on they switched to fish from the Clupeidae family.”
