     A HAPPY REUNION
     The Chinese crested tern, a sizeable seabird, had not been seen since 1937. In June 2000, eight adults with some young birds were sighted on the Taiwanese island of Mazu, off the Chinese coast of Fu Jian province. Measures to protect them were taken immediately because fishermen collect the eggs of seabirds nesting on the island. Since then, more of these rare birds have been sighted in other locations.
