Session:
Headlines: The last scheduled visit
to the Bagnor Feeder, not a bad session. Captured here, at last a Siskin and
five Goldfinches; all contributing to a good variety of species. The surprise
capture is the Chiffchaff I heard my first of the coming summer yesterday at Thatcham
Marsh GPs and the second, one singing here today that we later captured. Blue
Tit presumably all in woodland on territory with just a few wanderers. Great
Tits seem to outnumber the former at all the feeders at the moment which I
think is unusual. Comfortable sunny periods, a steady capture, a chat with the
shepherd and a couple of walk around the field and the session was over sooner than expected.
Weather: Present:
Nets:
Lure (feeder): peanuts, black
sunflower, fat balls, niger
