Keep on looking through the birds especially over incomming and falling tide and send info to EURING or Graham McElwaine with multiple records at:
Oh and checkout Axel Heiburg Island on google earth!
One of the Brents at Beddmanarch that has been ringed - it's not one of Ken's combinations though!
A juvenile Pale-bellied Brent - not the belly collour and the lack of white neck collar.
Part of the flock at Beddmanarch Bay. It's well worth looking out for ringed birds amongst this lot and those on the Foryd as they've travelled a long way to be here!
Interesting stuff Rob - this is where the ones that were 'read' on the Foryd had come from.
ReplyDeleteGood numbers at Beddmanarch Bay this year, including a good number of juvenile birds.
