Brambling


I wonder if this is the bird Kevin and Brian have seen in the last few days? This is the only one I've seen this winter, and helpfully it walked into the maze trap today. It now carries jewellery on its right leg. Perhaps worth checking for if it travels the 300 yards to Red Bank!

    Haven't seen another since the other week Chris, but will keep a look out. Lovely capture. What colour is the ring ?

    Aluminium - but I could claim it is silver, as it should still be very bright.
