Talk:Least tern

the article on [California Least Tern should not have been destroyed

The article Californian Least Tern was destroyed in a merge into least tern. the article covered an important subspecies in california and was focussed and well written on that subject. that article and its history should be restored. Least Tern can stand as it is. Anlace 16:08, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

Agreed Californian Least Tern stands on its own and the article on it that was obliterated should be restored. I don't care what happens with the article on Least Tern; it was obviously improved by importing so much text from Californian Least Tern, so it can be left alone.Covalent 17:23, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

So do it. There's nothing that prevents you from making an article at California Least Tern. howcheng {chat} 17:39, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

Suggestion to change or replace caption with one that shows actual breeding birds

The caption that accompanies the photo with this article suggests that the photo shows breeding least tern and snowy plover. The photo show roosting least terns and mallards. No breeding birds appear in this photo and the snowy plover cannot be distinguished if it is indeed present — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rdakin (talk • contribs) 17:52, 23 July 2008‎ (UTC)

That says it's an endangered species, but the article has it "least concern." — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.234.60.139 (talk) 01:13, 25 December 2012 (UTC)

Endangered species is in limbo right now, from recent DNA research The Condor, 114(1):145-154. 2012 (Draheim et al.)and The Auk127, (4): 807-819 (Draheim et al.). This is just for the Interior (athallasus) and California (browni) populations, and may soon be altered. California populations have increased seven-fold since the species was first listed. The east coast population (S.a.antillarum) is neither endangered nor threatened. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Fratercula (talk • contribs) 22:16, 21 May 2014 (UTC)
