Today I went to Barneveld for a possible Baltic Gull. Besides this bird I had also several other interesting gulls.

Nice pictures Maarten. I think the Finnish ring is not yellow but orange?

Dark yellow or orange. Never seen such a ring before. After four hours with horrible light I could only make some recordshots. Thanks for the comment anyway.

Watch also the video on http://www.birdalerts.nl .

An other ringed Common Gull. Here a recordshot.

The Common Gulls are ringed by Frank Majoor. And it's orange alright, that Finnish ring. We've seen the entire spectrum in Poland in 2004 (black, white, red, wine red, orange, yellow)!

Orange, I know. I 've already reported my sighting. Thanks for the ringinfo! I thought it was Roland Jan B. But I wil send a message to Frank.

Regards,
Maarten

Today many rings seen at the Dump.
Many gulls too!!
3 herrings from Finland, a raven, those were the headlights.
