Aspects of Least Tern nesting ecology were studied in 1996 and 1997 along Georgia's coast. Numbers of nests, eggs, chicks, and fledglings at beach, dredged-material, and roof colonies were surveyed using walk-through counts from late April to mid-July. Numbers of nests ranged from 6 to 929 and they did not differ between years or among habitat types. Percent hatching success ranged from 0 to 53.4% and did not differ between years or among habitat types when the data were compared among colonies. High within-habitat type variability due to catastrophic colony failures masked differences in hatching success among habitat types. Causes of mortality included tidal flooding and human disturbance on beaches; extreme temperatures, predation by raccoons, dogs, cats, birds, and fire ants on dredged-material islands; and extreme temperatures, flooding, avian predation, and falling off roofs on buildings. More than 70% of Least Terns in Georgia are nesting with -30% hatching success on flat, gravel-covered roofs. These roofs could provide better refugia and nesting habitat if they continued to be gravel-covered rather than vinyl-covered, if drains were screened, and if -30 cm parapets were constructed around the perimeter.

An estimated 600 pairs of the two species nested in an area of about 50 acres. Gull management included discharging pyrotechnics to harass gulls and keep them off the nesting areas prior to the onset of breeding, and the physical destruction of all gull nests and eggs in the colony. This program was non-lethal to adult gulls. From 1993 to 1996, we found no evidence that discharging pyrotechnics at the colony site prior to egg-laying reduced the daily numbers of loafing gulls. Gulls appeared to habituate to the pyrotechnics and to our activities as the day (morning to evening) and season progressed. The physical destruction of nests and eggs was an effective method to eliminate the production of fledglings and eventually, starting three years after gull management began, reduced the number of nesting attempts 60%, from 742 total clutches in 1994 to 282 in 1998. Destroying gull clutches was an effective (albeit slow) method to control and reduce nesting by Herring and Great Black-backed gulls but, since about 40 percent of the colony remains, nest destruction will need to continue for several more years if the colony is to be eliminated.

Over the period, mortality rates tended to increase progressively until the mid 1980s, when they briefly fell to the levels observed in the first ten years of the study. This was followed in 1997 and 1998 by the highest mortality rates recorded, reaching 39% and 58% respectively. No other species were involved. These high mortality rates, and those in 1984-1987, appeared to be caused by toxin-producing algal blooms. The toxin is extremely poisonous, killing birds away from the colony during a single feeding trip and affected significantly more females than males (possibly because of different feeding areas or methods between the sexes). Bodies floated ashore only when on-shore winds occurred. Birds died in several spring and summer months during each of three years and in the same restricted area about seven km off-shore and in, or close to, an area used to dump human sewage. Circumstantial evidence suggests that the nutrients from the sewage may have been responsible for larger than normal blooms of algae. As a result of the mortality, colonies in the immediate area, particularly at Marsden, have declined dramatically (43% during 1992-1997 and an additional 50% during 1997-1998). In 1998, over a quarter of the remaining occupied nests were frequented by males only.

Listening to nocturnal vocalizations was the main survey method. Breeding of Fea's Petrel was not confirmed and new sites of Bulwer's Petrel were not found (previous status: one site, 50 pairs), but previously undocumented colonies were identified for the remaining species. Manx Shearwater occurred in four colonies with 115-235 pairs (previous status: probable breeder), Little Shearwater occurred in 28 colonies with 840-1,530 pairs (previously: four locations, >150 pairs), hot-season Band-rumped Storm-petrels occurred in 5 colonies with 250-300 pairs (previously: two locations, 200 pairs) and cool-season Band-rumped Storm-petrels were found in eight locations with 665-740 pairs (previously: three locations, 600 pairs). Most colonies were confined to precipitous cliffs and islets, which may be a result of predation threats by introduced mammals. Although these surveys provided a valuable revision of the status and distribution for these species of conservation concern, further survey work is warranted and target areas are indicated. We discuss the potential and limitations of listening for nocturnal vocalizations as a method to survey and monitor shearwater and petrel populations in inaccessible habitats.
