Movement of common garden birds.

This was a very popular talk, by a popular speaker. Many of the accompanying photos were of hand held birds, as Tony rings birds to study their movements etc, and so they were very clear. What fascinated me was the range of some of our common garden birds. Tony has ringed birds in his garden in Devon for many years. Suprisingly greenfinch ringed in Devon have been trapped in Linconshire a few days later!! Goldcrest fly over the North Sea from Germany in their hundreds, to appear in our gardens. And I thought the birds in my garden led quiet lives!! Shows what I know!!!!
