RECENT RECOVERIES of WADERS RINGED in BRITAIN and IRELAND Compiled by Nigel and Jacquie Clark RECENT RECOVERIES OF WADERS RINGED IN BRITAIN AND IRELAND compiled by Nigel and Jacquie Clark The following lists are compiled from data provided by the British Trust for Ornithology, from whom permission must be sought before using these data in publications. As usual, space does not allow us to detail all records in full. For the more rarely recorded species all records are given. For others, except Knot and Oystercatcher, all movements of over 100 km and recoveries of more than 3,000 days after ringing are detailed. Symbols Age is coded according to EURING code. v = caught and released (i.e. controlled), vv = ring number or colour marks (dye or rings) read in the field, + = shot or killed by man, x = found dead or dying, ? = manner of recovery unknown. Co-ordinates are generally given only when the locality is first mentioned. Oystercatcher Haematopus ostraZegus Forrecoveries not listed in fullthe durations are as follows: <500 days 26, 504-999 days 12, 1,000-1,999 days 9, 2,000-2,999 days 10, 3,000-3,999 days 10, 4,000-4,999 days 3, 5,000-5,999 days 2.

  • Wessex and the Reign of Edmund Ii Ironside
    Chapter 16 Wessex and the Reign of Edmund ii Ironside David McDermott Edmund Ironside, the eldest surviving son of Æthelred ii (‘the Unready’), is an often overlooked political figure. This results primarily from the brevity of his reign, which lasted approximately seven months, from 23 April to 30 November 1016. It could also be said that Edmund’s legacy compares unfavourably with those of his forebears. Unlike other Anglo-Saxon Kings of England whose lon- ger reigns and periods of uninterrupted peace gave them opportunities to leg- islate, renovate the currency or reform the Church, Edmund’s brief rule was dominated by the need to quell initial domestic opposition to his rule, and prevent a determined foreign adversary seizing the throne. Edmund conduct- ed his kingship under demanding circumstances and for his resolute, indefati- gable and mostly successful resistance to Cnut, his career deserves to be dis- cussed and his successes acknowledged. Before discussing the importance of Wessex for Edmund Ironside, it is con- structive, at this stage, to clarify what is meant by ‘Wessex’. It is also fitting to use the definition of the region provided by Barbara Yorke. The core shires of Wessex may be reliably regarded as Devon, Somerset, Dorset, Wiltshire, Berk- shire and Hampshire (including the Isle of Wight).1 Following the victory of the West Saxon King Ecgbert at the battle of Ellendun (Wroughton, Wilts.) in 835, the borders of Wessex expanded, with the counties of Kent, Sussex, Surrey and Essex passing from Mercian to West Saxon control.2 Wessex was not the only region with which Edmund was associated, and nor was he the only king from the royal House of Wessex with connections to other regions.

  • Records of Species and Subspecies Recorded in Scotland on up to 20 Occasions
    Records of species and subspecies recorded in Scotland on up to 20 occasions In 1993 SOC Council delegated to The Scottish Birds Records Committee (SBRC) responsibility for maintaining the Scottish List (list of all species and subspecies of wild birds recorded in Scotland). In turn, SBRC appointed a subcommittee to carry out this function. Current members are Dave Clugston, Ron Forrester, Angus Hogg, Bob McGowan Chris McInerny and Roger Riddington. In 1996, Peter Gordon and David Clugston, on behalf of SBRC, produced a list of records of species recorded in Scotland on up to 5 occasions (Gordon & Clugston 1996). Subsequently, SBRC decided to expand this list to include all acceptable records of species recorded on up to 20 occasions, and to incorporate subspecies with a similar number of records (Andrews & Naylor 2002). The last occasion that a complete list of records appeared in print was in The Birds of Scotland, which included all records up until 2004 (Forrester et al. 2007). During the period from 2002 until 2013, amendments and updates to the list of records appeared regularly as part of SBRC’s Scottish List Subcommittee’s reports in Scottish Birds. Since 2014 these records have appear on the SOC’s website, a significant advantage being that the entire list of all records for such species can be viewed together (Forrester 2014). The Scottish List Subcommittee are now updating the list annually. The current update includes records from the British Birds Rarities Committee’s Report on rare birds in Great Britain in 2015 (Hudson 2016) and SBRC’s Report on rare birds in Scotland, 2015 (McGowan & McInerny 2017).

  • Submerged Landscape of Orkney
    Submerged Landscape of Orkney Project Interim Report December 2008 S Dawson & CR Wickham-Jones The Bay of Firth showing the islands of Damsay and Holm of Grimbister (Fiona Stewart) Project Work Fieldwork, Bay of Firth Hydrographic survey work was carried out in the Bay of Firth from Ferry Point on the east side to Backaquoy on the west, using side scan sonar operated by Fiona Stewart of HighResolution Geoservices and the Charles-Ann skippered by Harvey Groat from Stronsay. This work had three aims: • To investigate, and if possible verify, persistent rumours of a submerged structure including vertical slabs in the vicinity of Damsay • To recover data relating to the pre- submergence landscape of the Bay of Firth • To examine the sea bed for cultural heritage, including both wrecks and built structures The Charles-Ann, skippered by Harvey Groat (Fiona Stewart) The results of this survey are presented in appendix 1 and revealed several positive anomalies which have now to be investigated further using a camera, ROV and shallow diver work (appendix 2). Most of these anomalies are likely to relate to recent cultural heritage, but at least one clear reading came from the area of interest indicated by local informants. The existence of a submerged prehistoric structure in the Bay has not yet been ruled out.

  • British Royal Ancestry Book 3, Kings of Wessex, from Cerdic, Who Came to Brittany in 495 to Harold II of England, My 27Th Great Grandfather
    GRANHOLM GENEALOGY BRITISH ROYAL ANCESTRY, BOOK 3 Book 3, Kings of Wessex INTRODUCTION The British ancestry is very much a patchwork of various beginnings. Until King Alfred the Great established England various Kings ruled separate parts. In most cases the initial ruler came from the mainland. That time of the history is shrouded in myths, which turn into legends and subsequent into history. Alfred the Great (849-901) was a very learned man and studied all available past history and especially biblical information. He came up with the concept that he was the 72nd generation descendant of Adam and Eve. Moreover he was a 17th generation descendant of Woden (Odin). Proponents of one theory claim that he was the descendant of Noah’s son Sem (Shem) because he claimed to descend from Sceaf, a marooned man who came to Britain on a boat after a flood. See the Biblical Ancestry and Early Mythology Ancestry books). The book British Mythical Royal Ancestry from King Brutus shows the mythical kings including Shakespeare’s King Lair. The lineages are from a common ancestor, Priam King of Troy. His one daughter Troana leads to us via Sceaf, the descendants from his other daughter Creusa lead to the British linage. No attempt has been made to connect these rulers with the historical ones. Before Alfred the Great formed a unified England several Royal Houses ruled the various parts. Not all of them have any clear lineages to the present times, i.e. our ancestors, but some do. I have collected information which show these. These include British Royal Ancestry Book 1, Legendary Kings from Brutus of Troy to including King Leir.
