Great news out of Los Angeles, where the Endangered California Least Tern has been discovered breeding at the Malibu Lagoon for the first time since 1940. Dan Cooper earlier this week  found 58 California Least Terns and then Los Angeles Audubon biologist Tom Ryan discovered 7 one-egg nests within the symbolic fenced area that Los Angeles Audubon has erected for Snowy Plovers in partnership with Audubon and California State Parks. Los Angeles Audubon, California State Parks, California Department of Fish & Wildlife and others are working now to protect the nesting site from disturbance from beachgoers, dogs, predators and other potential impacts.
