Inspired by canonloaders post, heres a couple of pics of birds in the hand. These photos are taken of a local bird ringing group and amazingly the birds always stay in the hand after ringing for a while before choosing to fly off. Im holding the camera but not the birds.

Must have flown away lol
In UK the "experts" use mist nets which catch small birds. The birds are then ringed to identify them at a later date if they are either re-netted or found dead.
All rings have the British Museum address where you report if you find one. The system helps a lot with bird migration.
