Here are three birds I met recently.

| Woodpigeon (600g) |
I caught this Woodpigeon by accident. I decided to try putting up my recently purchased nets to break them in a bit (they are always a bit weird when you use them for the first time), so put one up in the garden in a really obvious position. But it seems this bird wasn't paying attention to where it was going...

| Nightingale (21g) |
Here's a Nightingale we caught during Constant Effort Site ringing at Paxton Pits.

| Lesser Spotted Woodpecker (21g) |
And here's a Lesser Spotted Woodpecker (a juvenile female) caught in Sussex. I didn't get to handle it, but what a remarkable bird!
