“…This is a particular problem for apparent vagrant ducks because there are numerous wildfowl collections throughout Europe from which wild birds could apparently have escaped. Fox et al . (2007) sampled two generations of feathers from a first‐winter Baikal Teal Anas formosa shot by hunters in Denmark.…”

“…The hydrogen isotope values of the primary feathers show depleted 2 H values, clearly beyond the range of bird feathers grown in Europe, providing evidence for the growth of the feathers in Siberia, and thus verifying the identified migration route of white‐fronted geese wintering in south‐central Europe . More research on the different breeding sites in Siberia might enable us in the future even to differentiate between specific arctic summer regions.…”

“…Better identification of patterns of vagrancy will result from documentation of additional records of vagrant auklets and other seabirds, collation of published and often hidden unpublished historical records, and better understanding of weather patterns. Stable isotope analysis, genetics, and satellite tracking also hold promise to assist identification of source localities or populations of some vagrants (Jouventin and Weimerskirch 1990;Fox et al 2007;Pyle 2009;Birt et al 2011;Landers et al 2011).…”
