About 10 years ago I was given a hand-written piece of paper that had on it the key for the colours of twite rings. I have just tried to find it and I can't put my hands on it anywhere. I'll keep looking but meanwhile do you have any information available that can unravel them?
Just had a look on Google and found this site:

Looks like one of your birds may have been ringed at Rishworth Moor.
Not sure how up to date this is but try

If you haven't already done so take a look at http://www.grayimages.co.uk/ for superb photography and links through to local ringing info and the twite work (and its a local birder too!)
Dave - Could you forward me your e-mail address for the Rookery survey via Nick? I haven't found any in Copley yet though? The Wheatear can't be long now to Fly Flatts, the one at Soil on Monday was showing really well!
