Recent Controls
The details can sometimes take a while to come through to us, but here are some Controls whose ringing details have been notified to the Group over the past two years.
A Black-headed Gull ringed in Denmark in June 2003 was controlled at Rye Meads the following September.
A first year Meadow Pipit made it from Grampian to Rye Meads in a month and a half in Autumn 2006, most probably a bird hatched in Scotland and wintering further south.
The influx of Waxwings in early 2005 yielded a control of which we have now received the details: a bird ringed as a first year female in a place with the delightful name of Grimstadvatnet, Hareid, More og Romsdal, in Norway. We controlled it off site (Pindar Road).
