Colour-ringed chough

Noted Brian's observation of a colour-ringed chough (right leg red; left leg - yellow over green) at Broad Haven today.

This bird was ringed as a nestling on Ramsey in May 2004 and was last reported in July 2012 in the Nolton Haven area where it may be resident in the summer. Records of surviving colour-ringed chough are always welcomed, so thanks for reporting this one Brian.
