Hi Nige,

Many thanks. It has not been sighted since it was ringed in NW Iceland in 2014. We have very few Readings of Iceland birds from the Wash (27) compared With 1681 Readings from the Netherlands, 354 from the Stour and 353 from NW England. I see you have seen one before at Gibraltar Point. About 1:200 knots should have marks on from different schemes. We are particularly interested in birds With Orange engraved flags on the Tarsus marked in NW England, so anything you can do to encourage People to look for marked birds on the Wash would be deeply appreciated, especially at it is the most important site in the UK for knots
