Marsh LNR
Session: 11/09/2022 07:00 to 11:10hrs
Notes: Foggy and damp for most of the session. Plenty of Blackcaps again this week and still a few Reed Warblers. We expected more Chiffchaff as there seem to be a several in the nearby scrub, but little response to audio lure. We were joined by Kintbury Wildlife Group for part of the session who were pleased to see Cetti’s Warbler in the hand as well as the other species.

Thank you all so much for allowing our members of KWG to join you this morning. We were all thrilled to see the birds so close, but also to learn what you do to record the birds you catch and how well they are handled before being released unharmed. This was a great morning out followed by a good walk around the marsh and back along the canal. Thank you all for your patience, information and time.
