I wonder how many trainees he taught to ring. Michael contributed so much to the bird ringing community in Cambridgeshire. He had a regular monthly session during the winter at Lark Rise Farm in Barton and very often had a different trainee with him. I only kept notes but admired his depth of knowledge and patient explanation. It seems he was regularly at so many different places, I don't know how he fitted it all in, but the data was always processed promptly and we'd get a short report on the findings from each visit with interesting notes about some particular bird or other every time.
