A few weeks ago we showed a photo of the below ringed Black-tailed Godwit at Swineham. Local birder Ian Ballam has emailed me with information on where it was ringed and it’s movements over the last year….

He states that his team ringed this bird on 9^th  July 2012 at Langhus, SW of Siglufjordur, N Iceland as a big chick. The yellow flag indicates that the bird was ringed in Iceland.
