State-endangered Common Terns have also attempted to nest at Gull Point after many years of absence. In 2015, a small colony of eight nests fell to predation or high water. In 2016 two nests were made, with one reaching hatching, but both nests were predated and no chicks successfully fledged. Every year since, nesting has been attempted, but predation or other factors have led to nest failure.
