Session: 01-Aug-2018 06:50 to
10:30hrs
Headlines: Conditions for
ringing much better than yesterday, sylvia and phylos warblers were on the
move. Garden Warblers were joined by a few Blackcap and Whitethroat today. Willow
Warblers out numbered Chiffchaffs as expected this time of year; some time
mid-August there will be more Chiffchaff. A couple of Goldcrest hopefully
indicate that crests are starting to disburse. No adults captured today but
there were some very bright Willow Warblers, Whitethroats and Garden Warblers
that had completed their post juvenile moult. A good steady capture for most
of the session with a loll in the middle made for an enjoyable time. A long
chat, when my Chinese friends came by, filled the gap.

One of the bright Willow Warblers, unfortunately the photo doesn't show how yellow and green they appeared
Sightings 24 Species: probably
missed a few, the Swallow and Swifts went over at the very beginning of the
session. Looks like the local Greenfinches have fledge and left as none were detected this morning or yesterday, whereas a week ago they were very busy and noisy.
