2020 Reese, R. Allan & Tucker, John J. Descriptive models for first-arrival dates of migrants in an inland UK county. Ringing and Migration. 34(1):1-7
Allan Reese applied statistical analytical techniques to first-arrival dates for Shropshire. The data derive from a comprehensive search of Shropshire’s historical record catalogued by John Tucker in SMAD, the Shropshire Migrant Arrivals Database, the first recorded dates usually from the 1870s. SMAD, updated, is available on the Shropshire Ornithological Society website.
