Chris's Bird Ringing: January 2012
http://traineebirdringing.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Wednesday, 25 January 2012. Traps bring 150th bird! In October 2011, (21st October to be exact), I ringed my first bird with my C Permit. A 3F Great tit was the culprit, caught in my. Trap on our bird table that Matt and I constructed. From that day my ringing career began as a lone C Permit ringer and it has been a great 3 months so far. I consider all my birds to have been caught in traps, e.g. Potter, Chardonneret. Spring and Drop trap, as well as hand catching and lamping. Bird, a retrap. I will hope...

Grampian Ringing Group: Leucistic Oystercatcher chick
http://grampianringing.blogspot.com/2015/07/leucistic-oystercatcher-chick.html
The website and blog of the Grampian Ringing Group. Thursday, 2 July 2015. On Friday 27 June Brian Pirie and I went to Hazlehead Academy to investigate a report of a possible albino oystercatcher chick. When we got there we found the bird was leucistic. Leucism affects the plumage of birds as they lack the pigment cells which are responsible for melanin production. Fawn colour on the normally black parts with a blue-grey eye. We would be pleased to have any sightings of this bird. 2 January 2016 at 06:45.

An Orkney Ringer
Orkney is an excellent place for birds and as an island group sat where the Atlantic Ocean meets the North Sea you never know what might turn up. Now which way is the wind coming from . On arrival on site there were certainly some good numbers of both Redwings and Fieldfares in the area. We set five nets in total and by the time we had the first two setup we were already getting Goldcrests. All in all a good ringing session with a good mixture of species to help towards obtaining my permit. It was pretty...
