Another windy day
Today, and the coming weekend the weather wont allow any ringing. This gives us the chance to so some work at the station and have some relaxation for the days when it is possible again to do some ringing. Luckely, the weather is perfect for some nice seawatch. Unfortunately, today was not as good yesterday.
And today, Morten left us. It was great fun, and we hope that you come back in the end of May!
At the end of the afternoon, a german child brougt us a ring. Fortunately, it was not one of our own birds. But it was from a captive one. A stock dove. It probably died during a race. The ring is a belgian and placed on the bird in 2013. This bird has reached the age of 8 years, because the only thing that was left of the bird was its carcass.
People at the station: Bent, Morten, Bello, Henrik and Menno

I might put all the counts from this season on, but that will take some time.
