Location: Snelsmore
Common Feeder
Session: 08-Jan-2017 07:40 to
11:15hrs
Headlines: A steady flow of
captures until it tailed off around 10:30hrs. The majority of birds were
recaptures and good numbers of Coal Tit as well as a better capture of Blue
Tit. Treecreeper and Goldcrest are unusual captures at feeders. The matching
visit of the 2015/16 winter had similar numbers but less variety and many more
1st winter Blue Tits. A typical session here for the time of year, the damp conditions
were not particularly comfortable though.
Weather: Foggy and very damp,
not cold, calm
Present: JL, IW, DL, GB
Nets: 12metres a 6m net
each side of feeders up from 08:00 to 11:
