Colour ringed birds

[Lockhart]

Thanks, Chris.  Bird was ringed on 13/06/2010 on Spitsbergen. Recorded in Hartlepool in several years after that but this is the first time it's been officially logged on the Headland since May 2016 (and first time it's been recorded anywhere since October 2016).

Martyn Sidwell and myself found this White Flagged, 1st year Common Tern at Seaton Snook on 14th Sept 2020. I only sent the data off yesterday and today received the details of the bird! It originated in Poland, was ringed and flagged in the nest and had travelled 1264 km in 85 days!

Cheers Ian.

One appeared on Back Saltholme mid-morning. Stayed about an hour feeding, preening and sleeping before flying to the south end of the east pond where it promptly went to sleep near the Great White Egret and two Little Egret.

Left tibia – Black flag over yellow over large pale blue.

Right tibia – metal over red over large yellow.

Believed to be from either Belgium or the Netherlands. Details sent off.

Present over the last week but this was the first time I've managed to read the tag details.

Believed to be from Norfolk.

Details sent off.


**** Update ****

F4 was ringed and tagged near Cantley, Norfolk on 20.06.2019 and was one of a
brood of just two. She had a sibling male. She has kept a low profile,
only being seen twice (13.01.2020 and 19.11.2020) nearby at Loddon.

Little Egret at Greenabella Marsh. White ring K on left tibia and Yellow ring 9 on right tibia. Can anyone tell me the link on CR-Birding?

https://www.cr-birding.org/node/407 Should be this, there's 3 links for different colours, but the photo shows the same rings as your bird.

Thanks Chris, I have sent it to that site.

Little Egret at Greenabella Marsh. White ring K on left tibia and Yellow ring 9 on right tibia. Can anyone tell me the link on CR-Birding?

It was ringed as a pullus locally by Tees Ringing Group 27/05/2016. It's pretty much site faithful. I regularly see it around Greatham Creek area. K4 was from the same nest and hangs around Dormans Pool and RSPB Saltholme. They're the only two I see regularly.
