Notes describing the finding conditions, was the bird dead or alive, habitat etc
Hints to help with the description of the find:
Was the bird ringed/banded with a metal ring only, or was there also a plastic ring? If so, on what legs were the rings e.g, 'Attached to the right leg' or 'Metal ring on the right leg, blue plastic ring on the left leg above the knee'? Did the plastic ring have text on it?
Describe the bird’s state—e.g., 'The bird was found deceased, showing signs of natural decay,' or 'The bird was alive but appeared weak and unable to fly'.
Provide any other relevant observations—e.g., 'No visible injuries, but feathers were heavily worn,' or 'The bird was found near a known migration stopover site.'
