A total of 1,727 ringed birds of 59 species produced 2,748 recaptures. In 2010, 304 birds of 34 species ringed on the Courish Spit in previous years were retrapped. Between 15.03.2010 and 15.03.2011, 92 birds of 25 species ringed on the Courish Spit were reported as recovered more than 20 km from the ringing site.
