RPM gives us this info about the bird which this disc gets its name: “With a population of fewer than 40 individuals that includes approximately 9 breeding pairs, the New Zealand fairy tern (Maori name “Tara Iti”) is probably our most endangered indigenous breeding bird. It is ranked as an endangered species, and carries a ‘Category A’ priority for conservation action. A Department of Conservation Recovery Plan is currently in action. – Department of Conservation Fairy terns are confined to Australia, New Zealand and New Caledonia, with endemic subspecies in each country. Fairy terns breed successfully at four sites only in New Zealand: Waipu sandspit, Mangawhai sandspit, Pakiri River mouth (one pair since 2003), and Papakanui sandspit on the southern headland of the Kaipara Harbour. Since 2012, birds have occasionally nested at the Te Arai Stream mouth, just south of Mangawhai. They nest on exposed sand spits, clear of vegetation and large debris, and where shell accumulates above spring high water. – NZ Birds Online“
