20 species!

A good range of species after a spell of bad weather
af Denise LAMSDELL

After a day of strong winds and persistent rain yesterday, when ringing was not possible, this morning we were back in the routine of opening nets in the dark, clearing the nets regularly and hoping for something interesting for our efforts.

There had been quite a lot of thrushes about the previous day and some stayed on, Blackbirds being reflected particularly well in the records.

P1340478Brambling, juvenile male

There were a few more finches than usual and a smattering of Robins, Goldcrests and tits. We knew that it may be worth walking the beaches, looking for birds tired out by the earlier bad weather but didn’t expect to find one in our very own pond. Chris went and got it, and not long after being ringed it was back out in the grass, grazing well.

Last thing, just as we were closing after standard, five Waxwing (Silkehale) flew across the garden towards the lighthouse. We did try a taped call but had no luck in encouraging them back.
