Newport ringed Oystercatcher

13.00 - no terns!,
but 69 Oystercatchers, including one with an odd darvic ring on R tarsus. Too far away & mobile for my rudimentary foto setup, but the ring was white with 3 horizontal black bands. No letters or numbers. There seemed to be a metal ring in the L leg.
I can't find the ringing scheme on crbirding. Have any of our local Oystercatcher ringers any suggestions?.
