Stanwell Moor GP - 28th August 2019

An early morning shower had us wondering whether birds may have been pushed on or pushed down today. Either way, the total was around the 100 mark again. Blackcaps continue to dominate in numbers and there was a smattering of singletons from different species bringing the species tally to 16. Most unexpected was a young Kingfisher. Neither of us could recall when we last ringed one so this capture was very welcome indeed.

Kingfisher aged 3F
