Ringing at Brixworth

Hello

A very modest ringing session took place at Brixworth Sewer Works this morning. Few birds were caught but did include three new Great Spotted Woodpeckers (two juveniles), a Whitethroat and a juvenile Swallow. Interestingly we did capture a juvenile Grey Wagtail already bearing a ring which we didn't recognise as being used by anyone in the Northants Ringing Group! Presumably this bird has already moved some way from it's breeding site (and presumably outside the county), and found the sewer works to its liking!

Regards
