We blogged about him in last April. He
was ringed as a juvenile on the 16th September, 2012 in the Montrose
Basin in NE Scotland. Since that blog last April, he was seen again on Bull Island
on the 2nd of May, 2013 before heading off to breed.

He is back in Dublin again and has been seen and photographed
several times on Bull Island, with the most recent sighting being on the 23rd
February.

Isn’t it fantastic how much we can learn from these
colour-ringed birds? Check out this link to read about what godwit researchers are learning
about how climate change is affecting the timing of migration.
