More of the same

Today was much as yesterday in terms of species around, only quieter. 68 birds in total were ringed today, totals as follows. Goldcrest 33, Robin 19, Blackbird 3, Chiffchaff 3, Dunnock 3, 2 of each Sparrowhawk, Wren and Song Thrush. A single Treecreeper was the first we've seen during October and only the 5th of the year. Unfortunately it didn't have short toes!
