15/12/07 Bates Wood, Denver. Simeon
Ringing started at 8:ooam this morning at Bates Wood, Denver. Quite a few birds were caught, amongst which were 3 Coal tits, 1 Goldcrest, several Long-tailed tits, a Woodpigeon and a splendid adult Green Woodpecker! The best pictures of the woodpecker are in the gallery. Its claws were really sharp and I came home bearings the painful, but respectable scars! Other birds caught were; loads of Blackbirds, Blue tits, Great tits, and the odd Robin and Dunnock. Other birds seen were; several Siskin flying over, a Great-Spotted Woodpecker and a Sparrowhawk. It was a great morning.
