Summary of recoveries in 2006. The first line for each species summarises movements within Britain and Ireland for the current year (before the "/") and the grand total (after the "/"). The table summarises international recoveries. The first two lines (BTO ringed) give the number of birds ringed in Waterford reported abroad in the current year and the total of all such birds. The next two lines (From Abroad) give the number of birds ringed abroad and found in Waterford in the current year and the total of all such birds. Columns list recoveries for countries in Europe, recoveries involving other countries (if any) are listed underneath with recoveries for this year and total number being separated by a "/". Note: Bal=Baltic States (Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania) and Mor=Morocco. A selection of recoveries are given in full because they represent particularly long-lived birds (the national longevity record is included below these records), birds which have moved a long distance within Britain and Ireland, birds which have gone to, or come from countries with few such recoveries, or because few birds of this species have been recovered. For longevity and distance records an individual is only included once, for reports to and from countries an individual may be reported multiple times, particulary if it bears a colour mark or other means of identification in the field Some older (mostly foreign) recoveries are also included where these were received in the year reported on For full details of how these birds have been selected click here
