Résumé :	In 2012, precisely 117,867 birds of 156 species were ringed in Slovenia with the Barn Swallow Hirundo rustica as the most numerous species. The commonest among local recoveries were Great Tits Parus major, while among recoveries from abroad Barn Swallows and Mute Swans Cygnus olor predominated. Most of the latter recoveries were associated with Croatia. In 2012, a species considered rare in Slovenia was ringed, the Yellow-browed Warbler Phylloscopus inornatus (2 individuals). Additionally, there were also recoveries of ringed Lammergeier Gypaetus barbatus and Caspian Gull Larus cachinnans, both regarded rare in our country. According to the ringing data, invasion of Great Tits Parus major took place in the autumn of 2012. The paper also gives a full overview of birds ringed or recovered in and outside Slovenia in 2012, with the oldest recovered ringed individual being the Mediterranean Gull Larus melanocephalus from Italy (18 years) and the longest distance recovery being the Kestrel Falco tinnunculus from Finland (2,320 km).
