A few more crests on the wings of the storm

Today's Goldcrests still have lots of fat, so, were they wind assisted?
af Denise LAMSDELL

Despite the windy conditions and menacingly grey clouds, we managed to complete the standard compliant session this morning. The day brought a new influx of Goldcrests, most still with medium to high levels of fat and the heaviest weighing in at 6.9g. There were also some new Robins although they were carrying low fat levels and most need to feed up before the next part of their journey. The species spread dropped to just 9, although that is partly due to nets being wind affected, so more visible to the birds and less likely to hold any larger birds that are caught.
