The Common Tern (Sterna hirundo) is one of the characteristic bird species of Lake Balaton. Breeding colonies were described formerly from fishponds in Fonyód and Irmapuszta. Currently, the most numerous breeding populations can be found at the Kis-Balaton reservoir. In 2007 74 breeding pairs were recorded at the fishponds at Irmapuszta, which is about 40 percent of the recognized breeding pairs at Lake Balaton and its surroundings and 6-10 percent of the total breeding pairs in Hungary.
