Ringing on 19th Aug 2011

A harsh day today with the weather turning decidedly miserable for ringing with bright blue skys and a strong breeze. George managed to process just 10 birds this morning including 5 New birds and 5 Retraps.


  The catch was made up of (New/Retrap) - (0/3) Dunnock, (3/2) Whitethroat, (1/0) Garden Warbler and (1/0) Goldcrest.


  The Goldcrest is the first of the Autumn proper whilst the Garden Warbler is the seventh of the Autumn and the sixth in a week!
