- Woodpigeons don't really get going until later in the year, so I'm happy to monitor this one for the #NestRecordScheme! @btobirds.bsky.social

- Even nest monitoring non-natives in the UK can provide vital information on their breeding performance. #NestRecordScheme @btobirds.bsky.social
- Thanks to #BirdRinging, the maximum age of a Woodpigeon has been recorded at 17 years 8 months. This bird (F9) popped into my Norfolk garden this morning and is at least 13 years old now. #Amazing! @btobirds.bsky.social
- This bird caught in Norfolk, could have been shining itself in sunny north Africa, just a few weeks ago. Now it is wearing a @btobirds.bsky.social bird ring, we may well find out where it goes. #BirdRinging
- It's 'just' a Starling they say. No no no. Just take a good look! Such vibrant colours in the sunshine, and this one has three white throat feathers too! #BirdRinging @btobirds.bsky.social . @btoengland.bsky.social
- It'll soon be time for our winter visiting Whooper swans to be flying back to Iceland. Don't forget to check their legs for rings before they do! @btobirds.bsky.social #BirdRinging @wwtworldwide.bsky.social
- It's such a privilege to help monitor these golden plover at a site in Norfolk. As with all birds, check their legs for colour rings when you're out birding and report it to learn more about them. www.cr-birding.org. @btobirds.bsky.social #BirdRinging
- Originally ringed on 21st Dec 24, our yellow ring L7 Woodpigeon is back! Living to 17 years 8 months, we'll hopefully see this bird for many years to come. @btobirds.bsky.social #BirdRinging
