It was only when I was sorting these Black-tailed Godwit photos, that I noticed that I had failed to photograph the celebrity: the out of focus colour-ringed Blackwit. We did notice it was ringed soon after.
It was colour-ringed as Juvenile Female on 10 Nov 13 at Seaton Marshes LNR. The ring details are: left leg lime over black over lime & right leg yellow over red over yellow. Since she was ringed, she has been seen in a good number of locations, but she seems very faithful to Poole Harbour in recent years:
