Bird Ringing. Bedfordshire April 2008.

Myself and Sarah joined the bird ringing team from the Lodge RSPB at a nearby location to see what they could catch and ring. Unfortunately we missed the willow warblers and blackcap caught before we arrived, but over the next couple of hours some nice common species were photographed in the hand and a good experience in studying the finer points of the birds makeup.



Also a moth trap was put up the night before but only 3 moths were caught being an Early grey, Red chestnut, and Powdered quaker. I will join them again on the next veture so as to get some photographs for them and hopefully something good will turn up in one of the bags.
