| | | Ruff ?
I went out this afternoon to get a few pictures of the Godwits.
There were a few other birds that came in with them which I'm guessing are Ruff.
What do you think?  |

That bottom right bird does look a bit 'ruff'  Seriously though I would have put that down as a ruff, but probably best to wait for confirmation from someone better than me at waders! |

The bottom right certainly looks like a juvenile Ruff again only going by the pics in the book someone should be along more experianced to confirm shortly

Yes i'd defently say ruff. If you follow this link you will have details on how to report the colour ring and tag details. They may email you back with ringing information. International Wader Study Group ~ colour ring example

Definitely a Ruff - and with a load of jewellery too!
You can report the sighting online here at the BTO website. Euring Web Recoveries
It'll be interesting to learn "your" bird's story!
