Ringing chicks

Once again it's been a busy week as last Sunday I was with PH ringing Common, Lesser Whitetroats, Blackcaps, Great tit and a retrap  male Bullfinch that was ringed back in March.

16th May

Made a second visit to Netherhall with PRO, PH and some of the Southern colour ringing group to colour ring Little Egret chicks. 12 Little Egret and 2 bonus Grey Heron were ringed.

Some birds were to small to colour ring.

Little Egret with Me and my happy face.

Grey Heron, please pass on sightings of any colour ringed bird.

Saturday 18th May

Out with PRO, PH and DMo to ring some pullis waders sadly the numbers were very low due to a number of reasons, hopefully 2nd broods will have a better chance?

Ringed Plover above, just 2 were ringed and just 1 Lapwing!

Thanks again lads.......
