Bird ringer since the tender age of 15 and once again back working in the BTO ringing scheme, but now from home in sunny Cornwall.
It’s depressing when this comes up on Pointless and the only correct answers in the first category were ‘arctic’ and ‘gull’, and there were NO correct answers in the second category! Those 100 people need to be educated!

Surprise 2,000 (mostly small) gulls on Restronguet Creek for the @btobirds.bsky.social Winter Gull Survey this evening, of which I reckon 70 Common Gull were the most notable #WinGS

An impressive 52 Chiffchaff mist-netted in a couple of hours at one of our west Cornwall sewage works sites this morning. Included just the one Sibe Chiff and a retrap of a bird originally ringed in Hampshire in August.
