Descripción

Lancelin Island is an important breeding location for a number of sea-birds including Wedge-tailed Shearwater, White-faced Storm Petrel, Bridled Tern and Roseate Tern.

From Birdlife WA - see link: "Lancelin Island Reserve 600 metres offshore is managed for the conservation of flora and fauna. The island is an important sanctuary for a variety of breeding seabirds, for several resident land birds and lizards, and for resting sea-lions. About 100,000 birds are estimated to use the island for breeding, therefore almost all of the surface terrain is occupied and is vulnerable to disturbance by human activity.

Visitors are urged to keep to the limited east to west walk trail, especially between July and March. When the birds become agitated, nests could be abandoned or left open to predators. Burrows of shearwaters and petrels could be crushed by carelessness".
