The first sign of Spring in Bermuda has arrived early this year, with Longtails spotted near Coney Island and Spittal Pond.The birds usually arrive mid-February but are believed to have come to the Island early this year due to the recent stretch of mild weather.Bermuda Audubon Society president Andrew Dobson said: “The white-tailed tropicbirds [more commonly known as Longtails] spend the non-breeding season on the ocean to our south.“The Longtails return to Bermuda to breed, and the population of some 2,000-plus birds is one of the largest concentrations of tropicbirds found in the region.”
