dc.description.abstractBetween 2003 and 2009, no fewer than five new species of birds bred for the first time in Malta. These were the Collared Dove Streptopelia decaocto in 2003 (Sultana 2003), the Little Grebe Tachybaptus ruficollis in 2006, the Little Egret Egretta garzetta in 2007 (attempt failed) and 2010 (attempt succeeded), the Coot Fulica atra in 2008 (Raine et al. 2009) and the Pallid Swift Apus pallidus in 2009. This short note details the first confirmed breeding records of each of these species, using the standard categories of breeding evidence used throughout Europe and as specified by the European Bird Census Council (EBCC).en_GB
