Glasgow - Hogganfield Loch
This mist net was used during a ringing demonstration held at Hogganfield Loch, Glasgow. This piece of conservation equipment safely captures birds as they enter the net. After making contact with the net, birds will fall into horizontal pockets before swiftly being extracted by the licensed ringers on site. After the birds have been ringed and measurements of each individual have been taken, they are immediately released. You must have a licence before installing a mist net; this is obtained after many years of training with the BTO ringing group(s).
