A new year, hopefully with another visit

 Three new recoveries just received. All three birds were ringed on Nan Ron over the period 30Jul-2Aug 2019 and strangely, probably indicating they are all wandering juveniles of non-sufficient maturity to breed, all were re-trapped at Twinyess, North Ronaldsay on;

25 June (2757196); 10 July (2749012); 14 Aug (2757109). Needless to say 'distance' was the same for all, 141km, but days between capture and recovery were 328, 346 and 379 respectively.
