colour-ringed blackwit

One of the black-tailed godwits at Old Moor today had very obvious colour rings on both tibias. To me they both looked yellow but - a shameful admission for a birder - I am one of the 9 per cent of males that is colour blind! I believe there is an extensive colour ringing scheme afoot (!) in Iceland.
