Abstract
Úrtak
Einasta staðið í Føroyum, har súla eigur, er í Mykinesi og Mykineshólmi. Fyrstu ringmerkingar av súluni í Føroyum vóru í 1931. Síðani tá, eru 909 súlur merktar, og av teimum hava 30 afturmeldingar verið. Úrslitini frá afturmeldingunum vísa, at ferðamynstrið hjá føroysku súluni er líkt tí hjá øðrum norðurevropeiskum súlum. Tó kann ikki staðfestast frá hesum data, um tær yngru súlurnar flyta longur burtur frá reiðurplássunum enn tær gomlu.
Abstract
The only breeding places for Gannets in the Faroe Islands is on the island of Mykines, and in Mykineshólmi, an islet just west of Mykines. The first ringing of Gannets in the Faroe Islands was done in 1931. Since then 909 Gannets have been ringed with 30 recoveries. The results from the recoveries show, that the migratory pattern of the Faroese Gannet is similar to that of other Northern Gannets. It was not possible to conclude from the recovery data if the younger Gannets migrate farther away from the breeding colony then the old ones.
