Hi Jayne,

Thanks for reporting this. You will get a response from the BTO in due course, but it was ringed as a chick (one of a brood of 3) at Old Leake in 2011, by Bob Sheppard. Main roads are the biggest problem for Barn Owls.

The BTO are usually pretty prompt at replying but they can only do it if the ringer has forwarded the information to them. This is particularly true of some foreign ringing schemes and I am still waiting to hear about a Dutch ringed Water Rail from September 2008! Dean, I would suggest you re-submit the Swan ring details - 2 years for a BTO ringed bird seems an exceptionally long delay.

Last time I reported a dead Barn Owl I got a response within weeks - a letter and a couple of BTO mags :)
