Session: 22/08/2025 07:35 to 10:45hrs
Notes: The second round of the
day was very busy and was when most of today’s 29 birds were ringed. We play the
Grasshopper lure in the hope of getting a migrant. Thought we has
lost this one as it landed in the nets near my as I was taking out another bird
and freed itself as I reached down to remove it from the bottom shelf of the
net; fortunately, it flew straight into another net. This is only the 4th of
this species we have ringed at this site, the last was in 2022 which is also the last time I saw/heard this species. Otherwise the species makeup is similar to the last few visits.
Present: JL,IW,NC.
Weather: overcast early sunshine later, calm, warm.
Nets: 48metres
3 Rides, up from 08:00 to 10:30 hrs.
