Ruffled Feathers is an optional forum that members can join. Click on 'how to subscribe', which is in that forum's description.
However, I think your post is on topic, and amusing, so it maybe better here.

cheers,

Presumably there's also a LRP on display, labelled as Critically Endangered.

PS. Isn't the bird a Crowned Lapwing?

Yep, certainly looks like one!

It seems to have a ring so maybe someone can submit the ring number to find out some location data :-O

I'm surprised it's not just labelled RINGED PLOVER...

And its obviously not very big, so it is indeed a Little Ringed Plover, and the description in the case is correct.

If Sociable Plover had colonised large parts of England and Wales it would have made the film "The Hide" pretty pointless. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1305816/plotsummary
