Calderdale Birds
This afternoon 5+ Twite in a meadow area just past the two old wooden railway wagons - 3 Twite had (as far as I could see) the same combination of coloured rings. Red ring on left leg and silver(ish) ring on right leg. One may also have had an additional ring below the red one but difficult to see for certain without a scope.
Are these the locally ringed birds anyone?
No Cuckoo's or Redstarts in Luddenden Dean!

The red ringed birds sound like they are from the Cant Clough area (near Burnley), there should be another colour with the red although I too have seen a single red at Wainstalls. The ringing project is part of a PhD being undertaken by Andre Raine and is aimed at studying the feeding and breeding ecology of Twite in the South Pennines hopefully giving an insight into why this species is in such serious decline and what steps can be taken to halt this decline. Anybody seeing colour ringed birds can forward the combinations and sighting details to Andre via me or directly at Andre.Raine@uea.ac.uk
I was just about to say... but Nick beat me to it.
