I'm thinking of taking a trip to Belfast in May. Is there anywhere I can go to have a good chance of seeing Roseate Terns? I note that they breed on Swan Island in Lough Larne, so I could maybe take a day trip up there and walk along the shore of the Lough (I'm assuming you can't visit the island itself). Also it looks as if the RSPB are trying to attract them to breed in Belfast Lough http://www.rspb.org.uk/news/310504-priory-college-eco-warriors-do-a-good-tern, though I don't know how likely I would be to see them if I called in there.
Or I suppose I could go down to Rockabill Island and fly back from Dublin, but it doesn't look like there's much in the way of arrangements for visiting the island.
Greatful for any advice.
