Bewick's Swan, Dunkirk, 5th January 2014 © Tony Martin
'...the
bewick is Yellow 509, a male I ringed as a cygnet in the 07/08 winter. It has
been returning to Dunkirk every season since, and last year brought its first
cygnet with it. That cygnet, ringed Green AHC, came back to the lake by itself
on January 3rd 2014, six weeks after its father arrived, and they clearly
recognised each other.' TM
