    It is a left leg ring, https://twitter.com/chiddymark/status/595143297762459649/photo/1

    Thanks Jaydee, you can definitely see the blue ring, left leg and the transmitter.   

    It is a thrill to think that it may be Rothiemurchus or Blue YD, or even better one of the tracked birds who we thought had perished....
