Chobham Common - 12 March 2016

A forecast for low wind today encouraged us to give Chobham Common a try for Dartford Warbler. It was a real struggle as the common was enveloped in thick fog and the dull, cold conditions were not condusive to tempting birds to show themselves or even call much. Despite the difficult conditions we managed to capture a young female with BP1.

 The fog persisted well into the morning.



Permission to monitor Dartford Warblers has been granted by the Surrey Wildlife Trust and the appropriate endorsements to use tape lures is held.
