Stour and Orwell Wader Turn-over Project

See below and excellent photograph of a summer plumaged Redshank in Iceland taken by John Tromp (www.johntromp.com). I ringed this bird at Levington Lagoon as an adult on the 8th October 2010.  This summer it is breeding in NW Iceland 500 miles south of a small village, Reykholer.

Newton, Backhouse and Wright ringing group are involved in individually colour ringing Redshank, Black-tailed Godwit and Dunlin.

  1. This is amazing, we're all sat looking at it in the office and think you should start putting messages into the rings!
