The ringing recovery maps and tables for birds moving further than 50km received last year have been updated on the relevant pages. I was going to say “from last year” but some were somewhat tardy in being entered up into the national database.
Pages updated were Resident Birds with Blackbird added plus additional movements for Blue Tit and Goldfinch. Warbler Recoveries for additional recoveries of Chiffchaff, Reed Warbler and Sedge Warbler. Wader movements were updated with the Curlew ringed at Blakehill in April and then spotted on the Exe estuary in the late autumn.
Not mapped on the Curlew map is the complete movement history of FJ18913. This is the table of its reported movements since it was ringed at Blakehill Farm on the 22nd April 2021:
It is clear that it is faithful to Blakehill Farm in the breeding season and Portscatho Beach for the winter.
The only time that this bird has been handled was when it was ringed: all of the other sightings have been made possible by the left leg flag it has with the letters EA visible through binoculars or a telescope.
