A joy this winter has been the number of Brambling. They have appeared in areas you would not associate with these winter visitors. The shots below are of one bird that is the last remaining at a feeding station. I have photographs of him before Christmas but he was much less attractive then. He has a ring on and you can read 3 characters of probably 7. This enables me to know it is not one of the few Brambling I have ringed. You should always enlarge photos of birds rings and try to read them. If you are able to read enough numbers the BTO may be able to identify the bird.
