By the early 1980's, the population of Little Terns visiting Rigby Island in the Gippsland Lakes had fallen to a low level as the species has a very low reproduction rate. ACTV arranged, at short notice, a "Tern watch" which was literally volunteers babysitting the birds. The project was very successful.This was the first ACTV project which actively used volunteers to protect a threatened species. The Little Terns are now off the official list of endangered species. It was among the first of our corporate sponsorships.Cream coloured, t-shirt, with ACTV logo, blue ANZ logo and text "Tern Watch '88" on front.gippsland, anz bank, little tern, tern watch, gippsland lakes, actv, conservation volunteers, endangered species, successful species recovery
