Ringed birds at Harborne Nature Reserve

I spent a couple of hours recording bird sightings on BTO BirdTrack at HNR this afternoon and noticed 3 ringed birds among them: Blue Tit, Robin, and Coal Tit. Unfortunately, the rings were largely unreadable.


All 3 were on the feeder in the upper little meadow. The ringed Robin (assuming it was the same one) was also at the lower feeder nearer the allotment gate.


Are there local projects where they are likely to have been ringed?

Do we often have ringed birds at the reserve?

A city centre oasis

I’d encourage members to visit WMBC Harborne reserve. Whilst small, it offers a diverse environment with a peaceful and relaxing backdrop.

I would ditto that Martin. I went for the first time a few weeks ago to do some photos for the website and I was astounded at how quiet it was being so close to the Birmingham conurbation. The reserve team have done a cracking job with the maze of footpaths. Well worth a visit.
