| OBSERVATIONS: | ||
| 09-04-2023 | adult: | 2 unringed cach present at blocks on N side, in front of location. Search for nest today. |
| 26-04-2023 | nest: | same location, old codes still present. Refreshed with spray. |
| eggs: | 1x egg, egg is cold. Nest abandoned? Egg measured. | |
| comment: | This used to be an early nest, 3 eggs should be floating already this date. In retrospect: late, as one parent is now Herring Gull? | |
| 13-05-2023 | adult: | partner 1 = cach adult. |
| 18-05-2023 | nest: | 3 eggs. |
| 27-05-2023 | pulli: | 3x chicks ringed and measured. |
| 18-06-2023 | pulli: | 3x chicks present, but not in category 'fledged', still too young. |
| pullus: | g-8|S with terrible head wound, therefore not measured. Will probably not survive. | |
| pullus: | g-8|T between blocks, was checked upon by adult Herring Gull, close to nest site. Hence: at least one parent is Herring!? | |
| 25-06-2023 | pullus: | g-8|U caught and measured. |
