Steve, Most of the nest boxes on the reserve were checked a few weeks ago and where applicable the youngsters were ringed. These were all blue and great tit chicks. I also saw a number of ringed youngsters on the feeders by the cabin on Thursday. It is highly likely that these are local birds but this could be confirmed by photoing the rings and getting the numbers.
