Wall to wall sunshine

Another lovely day with wall to wall sunshine and a light NE wind; this however contributed to a very quiet ringing session in the morning with just 11 new birds caught which comprised 7 Dunnocks, 2 Robins, a Chaffinch and a Chiffchaff.   A Hawfinch dropped in briefly early morning as did a Coal Tit a bit later on while a Red Kite, a Tree Pipit and 2 Swallows flew over and 2 Sparrowhawks whizzed around skilfully avoiding all the nets.

Louis also reported a quiet morning from the tip - apart from a healthy turnover of Easter tourists again with only a Serin and a couple more Tree Pipits of note.

There's something under the shed!
