Redpolls in my garden

A redpoll coming to my feeder had a bto ring on its right leg.I got a friend of mine whose is a ringer to come to my garden to try and catch it.We set up the net  and caught  4 redpolls but no sign of the ringed bird.I keep feeding the birds with up to 21 redpolls coming to the feeder.Today the ringed bird was on site so  I took a few  photos and after reviewing a lot of photos worked out the  ring number.It has been sent to the BTO  and await the results.
