Ring reading at Snettisham- 18th August 2025

 It wasn't a particularly high tide today, but sufficient to get some of the terns and gulls close enough for colour rings to be read. The Black-tailed Godwits were also on the pits so, although there were plenty that we couldn't get the codes or full combinations for we also recorded quite a few birds from other projects, and also found YN(2144) one of our own Med Gull juveniles from Scolt Head just along the coast.

2144, ringed at Scolt Head 25 June, fledging date 17th July and reported
 from Snettisham 13th and 18th August
