Hi Kate I friend of my received your email and has passed it onto me as we have been looked for various cased birds. Many of your list were on our target list so would be interested if they are still available – although I see the offer was to the end of January. Can you let me know if there are any left and still looking for a good home. We work on an National Nture Reserve in Yorkshire and use them for educational purposes, for training the next generation of bird ringers and where appropriate, as lures for catching birds for ringing. I look forward to hearing from you Cheers Craig Craig S Ralston Senior Reserve Manager Lower Derwent Valley, Skipwith Common, Forge Valley Woods and Duncombe Park NNR's http://ldvnnr.blogspot.co.uk/ https://www.facebook.com/pages/Lower-Derwent-Valley-Skipwith-Common-NNR/388893537806896 Twitter @LDV_NNR NNR Office Bank Island Church Lane Wheldrake York YO19 6FE We are here to secure a healthy natural environment for people to enjoy, where wildlife is protected and England’s traditional landscapes are safeguarded for future generations. https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/natural-england In an effort to reduce Natural England's carbon footprint, I will, wherever possible, avoid travelling to meetings and attend via audio, video or web conferencing.
