Twite record

Just been reading the 2010 YNU Bird Report (very highly recommended) and discovered that the longevity record for a British Twite is held by a bird from Midgley Moor, 5 years 7 months and 3 days and that was a field sighting so presumably it lived longer.

Don't know sorry. I have a ring number if you bins are good enough :)
