Hi Grahame,

I reported the Oystercatcher to the BTO as instructed by their web site about 2 weeks ago when I first saw them. I havn't had any feed back from them which was disappointing. One thing I couldn't confirm to them was if the bird had a ring and of what colour so that was probuly the reason they havn't come back.

I was there about 10.30 this morning both birds were still present.

If you get any further info please let me know.

Thanks Mark
