A group of offshore islands near Anglesey proposed to the Society as 'worthy of preservation' because they were a ‘nesting place for seabirds’. Now managed by the RSPB, the Skerries are home to breeding Arctic, common and, occasionally, roseate terns. These rocky islands, characterised by cliffs and maritime grasslands, also support significant numbers of breeding herring and lesser black-backed gulls.
