Pim saw a 1cy (SSC6?) years ago at Westkapelle, a year later I saw that bird as 2nd cy at The Maasvlakte.
History repeats?

Unlike NTT8, this one never returned to Amsterdam...
Many Croatian birds seem to migrate up north. On the Łubna dump near Warsaw I saw 3-5 different birds per day in July/August. In fact, all but one colour-ringed michahellis over there came from Croatia!

And again a mail by Jelena from Croatia:
Hi Mars
We have recoveries of only 6 different YLGs (from 11606 colour-ringed individuals) in the Netherlands. However, individual birds seem to prefer special places so some of them (as S3E4) returned to the same locality through several years. And obviously many birdwatchers are active in your country, as I regularly receive observations of the same bird from different people. It is very helpful, as we can see how long bird stayed in one area.
All the best
Jelena
