Recovery News; Going for Gold

We recently found out about the fate of a Goldfinch, who for simplicity we’ll call V845674, which was ringed at Cardiff Bay.

Ringed as a first year on 14 August 2009, V845674 managed get in a few years of hopefully meaningful existence before being found dead 735 days later (19th August 2011) and 3km from the bay in Michaelston-le-Pit, Vale of Glamorgan.
