Résumé :
|
In 1912, Blakeney Point was acquired for the National Trust and became Norfolk's first nature reserve. The Point had long been recognised for the richness of its birdlife, notably its breeding terns, but 1912 effectively marked the beginning of concerted conservation and monitoring work. Its prominent position on the north Norfolk coast meant that, even by 1912, it had a track record for attracting migrants. This short paper brings together some of the highlights of this iconic reserve to mark its first centenary.
