Black-headed Gull with white darvic J9PC still at Newburn Bridge this morning. It seems to favour this location as there have been several sightings of it here.

QuoteOn 1st January 2014 Dave also found a Black-headed Gull with a darvic with J9PC at Newburn Bridge - this bird was ringed 17/04/2013 as a 3cy+ at Østensjøvannet, Oslo, Akershus & Oslo, Norway. No other reports since it was ringed.

Dave Harrison came across another returning bird at Crookfoot Reservoir on 12/01/2015, a colour ringed Comorant CP3.

Dave came across this same bird in the same location on 30/03/2012.

QuoteThis individual (metal ring G1402) was ringed as a chick at Abberton Reservoir, Essex (OS TL9617) on the 14th May 2011, as part of a project coordinated by
Jez Blackburn here at the BTO.

Still present this morning.

Two present this morning.

OY NY was ringed on 7th September 1991 as a juvenile bird (BTO ring no. FC48911).

The bird remained using Seal Sands & Seaton Common throughout the winter and when over-summering and moulting during 1992 as a first summer.  Sightings would suggest it emigrated in it?s second summer sometime after 22nd March 1993, returning by 5th July.  Thereafter it was generally recorded on Seal Sands during the late summer/autumn (July - August) and then again late winter (January ? March, once in April; 11th in 1995).  The few observations made were by the two of us, largely of the bird foraging on Seaton Common in autumn and winter.  Since 2008 it's over wintered on Seaton Common most years.

RN GW which was ringed as an adult on 29th August 2000 at Seal Sands. The last few years it's over wintered on Seal Sands and Bran Sands though reports are patchy.
