one of the shoots i pick up on is running a tagging scheme
not to sure how it is run yet.
various keepers around the area are ringing there grey partridge,the rings are coloured and have a keepers phone number on,when birds are picked on shoots keepers ring each other and that way they know how far the birds are traveling.
on thursday i picked 3 greys 1 blue ring, 1 yellow ring, and 1 with no ring, not sure if the one with on ring had fallen off or if it was a wild bird.
