Another Record Breaker

In the latest British Trust for Ornithology (BTO) Ringing Report, Razorbill M23170, ringed as a chick on the cliffs of Bardsey Island, Gwynedd was reported back on the island for its 41st summer.
So we now have two record breakers - this Razorbill (41) and our Manxie at a minimum of 51 years old (re-trapped again this spring).

Steve will be attending our Council and Extraordinary Meeting this coming Saturday at Criccieth - after his family holiday in Norfolk. Steve, Emma and Connor will be returning to the island a couple of days later.
