Cormorant Llangasty 30.10.09 Mark Waldron Orange darvic ring on left leg possibly reading '010' Some research by Chris Wells has shown that this bird was almost certainly ringed at Abberton Reservoir, Essex at least three or four years ago. There is though an outside possibility of it being an Italian bird so it could be a valuable ringing recovery if seen again.

It was not thought that they had bred locally as later in the day the family group was chased off by a dominant pair. This family group was then at Glasbury from 19.8.05 to 27.9.05 which is the last record until now.
