Godrevy Head to St Agnes
[edit]
- ... that the cliffs and offshore rocks from Godrevy Head to St Agnes are host to the largest colony of breeding Black-legged Kittiwakes (pictured) in Cornwall, UK?

- Article length and age are fine, no copyvio or plagiarism concerns, reliable sources are used. For the hook, as far as I can see, the source mentions "cliffs and offshore rocks". I don't know how relevant the offshore rocks are, so possibly the cliffs alone could already host the largest colony, but since we have to follow sources, I think those rocks should be mentioned. As for the hook sentence in the article, i did not find the number ("1000–5000 birds") in the sources. Could you tell me where to look for it? bamse (talk) 22:02, 8 December 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks for the review! I wasn't too sure that the offshore rocks were relevant, but I think you're right in terms of sourcing, so I've added the offshore rocks to the hook. The "1000-5000 birds" is from this source (4), in Fig 1 - it's the largest circle in Cornwall (location can be verified with the grid ref in the SSSI citation), which refers to 1001-5000 of the birds (I took the liberty of rounding it to the nearest 1000). Hope that helps! Cheers, Zangar (talk) 16:45, 9 December 2011 (UTC)
