01/08/1909 -
Today we have done a session of ringing in our season saw Gúdar . Once again (and you go a few this year), there has been a " piquitortà " with the result of 83 crossbills (Loxia curvirostra) ringed. It's funny because we have over 400 "piquis" Gúdar ringed this year and we have only obtained control, indicating, first, that there are plenty of birds this season (have had to raise it), and secondly possibly because many are dispersed after birth and do not return to drinking because they no longer are in the area.
Indeed, we have set a new record: the biggest number of crossbills captured in a single round of access to networks: 62 individuals at once into a fountain!.
catches also include Greenfinch serrano (Carduelis citrinella), with 15 individuals. And speaking of citrinella , emphasize that we have recovered a man who was ringed by LLEBEIG 11/07/1907 in the source of the river Arcos (Arcos de las Salinas, Sierra de Javalambre) . This bird was ringed controlled I nstitute Català d'Ornithology (ICO) last 07/15/1909 breeding in Andorra (Pyrenees). This move demonstrates a fact we already suspected: that birds Pyrenees breeding population wintering in the Iberian .
the rest of species, little comment: 1 Short-toed Treecreeper (Certhia brachydactyla) , 1 coal tit (Parus ater) and 2 chaffinches (Fringilla coelebs) , all young of the year.
