Short abstract from the book:
Bewick’s swan is a common visitor to Denmark from late September to November and from February to April. A few birds stay in mild winters. The first bewick’s swan was ringed in 1956, with most birds ringed in 1995–96. Six of the ringed birds were recovered dead, all ringed in March–April. Seven swans ringed abroad have been recovered dead in Denmark. Recoveries of colour-marked birds are given in the subsequent chapter. The recoveries of dead bewick’s swans only give limited information about the movements of the Danish visitors. One bird ringed on migration in southern Finland on 12 October was recovered in Denmark in December the same year. Most birds continue on to wintering sites in the Netherlands and Britain, which is also indicated by recoveries and ringings
