Went ringing Saturday morning with Paul R, Rob and Louise and caught a good number of species before the heat became too much for the birds being processed. Wood Pigeon, Blackcap, Great Tit, Blue Tit, Dunnock, Robin, Wren and Green Finches were all scribed in the book. The highlights though were a yellow wing tagged
Red Kite ringed by our group at a nest site this summer as a chick was trapped to prove successful fledging.
Our re trapped

Just like Buses, another
Red Kite came in but this young bird was unringed which I was over the moon to be able to ring my first one and Paul added the wing tag- an amazing experience!
Please report any sightings of the above as it's so important to the group-thanks....
