Re: Bird ringing etc.........

I personally have never seen one but I know that Sparrowhawk, Kestrel and Tawny Owl have all been rung at Ferry Meadows. For me is the interesting news of birds which have travelled many miles and been caught in the nets in another country. Also to have birds caught here which originally were rung the other side of the continent or even further afield, not always migrants either.
