Since we only have about three Great Black-backed Gulls present in Köping I was quite stunned when I saw that one of the adults was ringed. I got even more happy when I saw the bird was ringed in Norway! After reporting it on our Swedish bird system I got an e-mail saying the gull has been a regular winter guest earlier years in Västerås, about 35 kilometers to the east. It was first seen there in 2003 and it's ringed as an adult female in northern Norway. I'm waiting for more information! It would be really fun if the bird has been seen in summer time on a breeding spot any of the years between 2003 and now.

Hej Oskar
ReplyDeleteDu kanske vet allt om JET5 redan?.
Här kommer lite info från FiV 1/2004 (MR): Märkt som adult hona vid boplatsen den 14 maj 2002 på Hornøya i Finnmark, längst ut på Varangerhalvøya, Norges ostligaste punkt!
Denna trut ingick i en studie som bedrivs av forskare vid NINA i Tromsø. Man försöker inom projektets ramar, utröna hur stort upptaget av miljögiftet PCB är inom en havstrutspopulation, vid den norska ishavskusten.

Hej du! Nej har inte fått nåt svar alls än. Kul, kanske såg jag den när jag var på Hornøya 2005 =)
