Ringed GBbG JA274

On the 1st of March a colour-ringed Great Black-backed Gull stood on a pier in the harbour of Peterhead, Scotland. JA274 the white code on the black ring said. A couple of minutes after signing in to the new gull ringing homesite of Norway I could see the history of the bird. It was ringed by Morten Helberg in Mandal, Norway on the 28th of June 2008.

If you see a colour-ringed gull you believe is norwegian, sign in to www.ringmerking.no/cr and get the history right away!
