Otros proyectos en NORUEGA

Kjell Mork Soot, me ha contestado al Charadrius hiaticula ( Chorlitejo grande) que puse hace unas entradas, con todos los datos de su anillamiento.

Además de eso, me pasa información sobre otros proyectos que están llevando a cabo en su estación de anillamiento y en Svalbard.

Hoy no tengo tiempo para traducirlo, así que va en Inglés ( Los colegas ingleses lo agradecerán, ya que el traductor de Google.....). Mañana si tengo tiempo, lo intentaré traducir (Con mi perfecto inglés de Oxford ;-)

We are ringing  waders and in western Norway (Sunnmøre Ringing Group)  and at Svalbard (Longyearbyen Feltbiologiske Forening / Norsk Polarinstitutt) . I will mention the projects here:

Sunnmøre, western Norway:

Sunnmøre Ringing Group has some cr-projects in western Norway. We hope, of course,  that you will look for flagged Common Ringed Plover (Charadrius hiaticula) ,  Common Sandpiper (Actitis hypoleuca) , Grey Plover (Pluvialis squatarola) and Curlew Sandpiper (Calidris ferruginea) in the future ! All these species have red colour ring on left tibia and yellow flag on right tibia engraved with 3 black letters.

Last season (2012) we also  started cr-marking Little Stint (Calidris minuta) . (Metal ring left tarsus. Red cr-ring above the metal ring. Right tarsus yellow ring engraved  with 3 black letters).

 We also  flag Common Redshank (Tringa totanus) with yellow colour ring and orange  flag engraved with 3 black letters.

We colour ring  Curlew (Numenius arquata)   : orange plain ring on left tibia and orange ring engraved with 3 black letters on right tibia.

And Rock Pipit  (Anthus petrosus), Pied Wagtail (Motacilla alba)  Waxwing (Bombycilla garrulus)   and Grashopper Warbler (Locustella  naevia)  with yellow ring engraved with 3 black letters on right tarsus.

Svalbard (Arctis Ocean):

At Svalbard (Artic Ocean) we flag Purple Sandpiper (Calidris  maritima) :

 a) Longyearbyen: orange colour ring and light green (lime) flag with 3 black letters .

b)  Longyearbyen: orange colour ring and (dark) green flag with 3 white  letters.

c) Sørkappøya (South Cape Island) : yellow colour ring and orange flag, 3 black  letters .

We also have started to flag Dunlin (Calidris alpina)  at Svalbard: orange marker ring on left tibia, and orange flag engraved with 3 black letters on right tibia.

Summer 2012 we also  started flagging  Common Ringed Plover  at Svalbard: Yellow marker ring at left tibia, and orange flag engraved with 3 black letters on right tibia.

If you are interested to see photos etc from Longyearbyen, Svalbard  www.LoFF.biz. It is members of LoFF (Longyearbyen Feltbiologiske Forening)  who are ringing/flagging Purples and other waders  at Svalbard. More about our projects you also find in www.svalbardbirds.com/Sorkappoya-filer/sorkappoya.htm

Our ringing group has a webside, www.fugler.com . Unfortunately written only in Norwegian.

The Italian web-side  www.crb-photoguide.com  show more than 2000 photos of colour marked birds in Europe, also from our projects.

Yours  sincerely,
