Ringing Groups




Ringers working together to pursue a common interest

Ringing Groups are formed by people who wish to pursue a common interest in ringing related bird studies. All of the groups below are currently registered with the BTO and operating using BTO rings. As a registered ringing group they will have at least two A-permit holders, a formally recognised 'Group Leader' and 'Group Secretary'. The six groups marked * below are organisations involved in research who may be using rings anywhere in the UK and Ireland to support their research. All of the linked pages are maintained by the groups themselves.
