This 1CY michahellis has been ringed in Germany: 15Y. It's a bird from Martin Boschert's project (bioplan.buehl@t-online.de). In 2004, he ringed 54 Yellow-legged Gulls. The bird was ringed as a pullus at June 07 2004 at the colony near Strasbourg, near Freistett (D) and Gambsheim (F) (48.40 N / 07.56 E). The sighting at Westkapelle is the first recovery of this bird.
