Today was our penultimate day of ringing here at Gedser, and it has been another quiet one. We opened the nets before sunrise as per usual, and felt quite optimistic because it sounded like there were some birds in the garden. However, despite keeping the nets open for most of the day we only caught 6 new birds. One of those was a beautiful male fieldfare though, so it’s not all bad!

We’ve spent the rest of the day fixing a few nets, cleaning the house and starting to pack. We’ve had a great time here at Gedser, and I’ve certainly learned a lot. Hopefully we’ll be back another time!

Cheers,

Gail
