It's been a bumper breeding year for terns at a wildlife reserve as the species attempts to recover from avian flu that wiped out seabirds across the country.

More than 40 breeding pairs of common terns have nested at Montrose Basin Visitor Centre and Wildlife Reserve, with more than 100 chicks hatched.

The Scottish Wildlife Trust, which manages the site, said 87 of the chicks were ringed by volunteers from Tay Ringing Group.
