Bird Ringing at Hazeley Heath

Bird ringing at Hazeley Heath we caught a nuthatch. This is an amazing bird he crawls up and down trees (unlike treecreepers who can only go up a tree and they fall down) feeding on insects in and behind the bark. This bird is a male because he has a rusty red patch under his wing where as females are buff all over their tummy



We have had a great bird ringing session at Hazeley Heath with lots of finches and tits. Do you know what species this bird is?
