I'll report this to BTO anyway, but as it could well be local, thought I might ask here. Does anyone know the ringing details of a Blackbird LC01674. This was found dead in George Street, Louth (cause unknown) by my brother in law on 21st February 2013. Assumed to be female ("not orange bill").
Interestingly, despite being reasonably sensible and my sister having been related to a bird spotter for 55 years, they were perplexed by the 'Inform Brit Mus' message. It makes you wonder how many are just thrown away. I believe BTO is trialling a web address, is that right? Maybe they already use it on some sizes.
