Ringing:

Today was a bit better than yesterday. In the morning we had 3 chaffinches (see the pictures of a female and female bird) and in the afternoon we decided to open a few nets at the pond. Which resulted in a Barnswallow and a Meadow Pipit. We can not show you a picture of the Barnswallow because it escaped before we could make a picture, but the bird was caugth last year by Robert at the same place. Of the Meadow pipit we have a picture (see below).

We caught 11 species of which 14 new birds and 10 recaptures.

No information about the migration because Oliver was in the sickbay, but is recovering.
