On a warm but blustery afternoon we walked from Chamber's Wall to Coldharbour and saw 4 Whitethroats, 4 Swifts, 1 Yellow Wagtail, 8 Shelduck, 3 Ringed Plovers, 2 adult Mediterranean Gulls W, 1 Common Sandpiper, 2 Oystercatchers, 1 Whimbrel, 4 Sandwich Terns and 1 Common Tern.
I have just received the ringing information of a Belgian ringed, wintering Chiffchaff we caught on February 11th in West Brook Valley. It had been ringed on October 12th 2014 at Nerem, Tongeren, Limburg, Belgium, 311 km ESE. This suggest that this bird may have originated even further east.
