COLOUR-RINGED CHOUGH

I noticed a nice photo of a colour-ringed chough on the Ceredigion Bird Blog, by Silke Einschuetz, on 20th August in a flock of 8 at Tanybwlch.  The colour-ringed bird (Rt: Lime/BTO Lt: Green/Orange “5H”) is one of this year’s juveniles, from one of the nest-sites just south of Aberystwyth.  There’s only been one previous sighting of this young bird, together with adult pair + 3 siblings.
