Conservationists in Alderney have described 2025 as a landmark year for wildlife in 2025, with their being "surprised" by how nature has been coping.

The Alderney Wildlife Trust (AWT) said one of the highlights had been the recovery of some seabird populations.

Staff said they had found the island's northern gannet populations had increased by 11% since 2023, after decreases caused by avian flu. Puffin breeding populations on Burhou also remained stable, they added.
