2015 Online Ringing & Nest Recording Report

10 Aug 2016

The Online Ringing & Nest Recording Report has been fully updated to include Ringing and Nest Record Scheme data for 2015. This year, the pages showing the timing of breeding and moult have been expanded to include an additional nine species and to show mean weights per month for each of the featured species. Longevity records for 11 species were broken in 2015. The oldest known Ringed Plover is now nearly 2 years and 3 months older than the previous record holder; at the other end of the scale, the longevity record for Garden Warbler was broken by just seven days. And the longevity record for Nuthatch is now 9 years, 9 months and 9 days!
