Ringed Herring Gull
Posted: Mon Sep 19, 2011 11:04 pm
Hello everyone. This is my first post here so first of all I would like to say what an excellent site this is though I am a little in awe of the depth of knowledge on display. I hope this can only help my passion for gulls to grow.
These birds were photographed in Stavanger, Norway on June 27th 2011. They are both, I think 2cy Herring Gulls, very pale, very worn, with a metal ring on the right leg [unreadable] and a black ring with white letters on the left leg - the code on the first bird is J2995 and J2976 on the second. I have submitted a request for info to Euring but hoped someone here might know the origin of the bird or ring. Thanks in advance.
