Light level geolocation to reveal new migration route of Central European common terns
The majority of European common terns migrate south along the western coast of Europe and Africa. Scarce recovery data of ringed birds suggest breeding terns of eastern regions of Europe cross the Mediterranean Sea from east to west to join them at the West African wintering grounds or migrate along the eastern coast of Africa. In this study, we used light level geolocators to reveal the migration route of inland common tern populations of Croatia and Hungary. We have found that beside the well-known western route an east African migration route is also used by European common terns. We also identified a feasibly important stopover site along the southern coast of Red Sea beside a wintering area at the eastern coast of Africa. These results indicate that migration pattern of the species might be more complex within the European population than ringing data available to date suggested.
