Michael Holdsworth

February 20, 1949 - September 9, 2021

It is with much sadness that we mark here the passing of Michael Holdsworth. He died suddenly and unexpectedly of a heart attack while on holiday in France on September 8th. Our deepest sympathies are with his wife Sue and the rest of the family. His loss will leave a huge hole in the Cambridgeshire Bird Ringing scene and the Bird Club, Wicken Fen and the Spotted Flycatcher community he built up, to mention just a few of his achievements. He inspired and helped so many people advancing their skills in ringing and ornithology. Please use this space to share your memories of Michael.

He was a very knowledgeable and likeable chap. This is big loss for the local ringing scene and the CBC annual report. Condolences to his family."
