Ringing on 28th Sep 2011

Ringing by George at the Observatory today resulted in 13 Bird processed including 12 New birds and just 1 Retrap.

  The days catch was made up thus (New/Retrap) - (2/0) Wren, (1/1) Dunnock, (1/0) Robin, (1/0) Blackcap, (1/0) Chiffchaff, (3/0) Goldcrest, (2/0) Blue Tit and (1/0) Reed Bunting.

The miserable September looks like it will finish in the same style that it started - high winds and few birds to ring on the days when opening nets is possible. It has certainly been one of the worst Septembers that I can remember at Gib in the last two decades!...
