MARTI update

A bit of garden ringing today - first in my own garden at Wyken, then in my brother-in-laws at Mildenhall.

In my own, managed to trap a MARTI that has so far evaded the nets. This one, a 4F, nipped into a drop trap just minutes after I'd set it, and she became LBR,M;RBY,R with BTO ring Y452210.



Also in the garden, though sighted only, were two of the other colour-ringed MARTIs from my RAS project, LBR,M;RBRB & LBR,M;RBR,W - both made frequent visits to the feeders throughout the morning.

Totals for the day:
