    Mark advises the Reed Warbler was ringed as a juvenile on 30th Aug 2014 at Conchemarche, France (814 km, 1337 days). The bird most likely hatched in the UK and was caught in France whilst on migration to Africa. The French ringed bird observed last year at Llyn Coed y Dinas (full ring not read) was probably the same individual.
