Deepdale Farm - 30th March 2024

 A first session for the year hoping for a few early migrants. We only had 13 captures, three being Chiffchaff and the Blackcaps heard about the site keep well away from the nets. The others birds were resident and included three obvious pairs captured together. A pair of retrapped Goldcrest has been ringed here as juveniles last year female with BP1, a pair of Long-tailed Tits included a Marsh Barn Carr bird neither in breeding condition yet and the Goldfinch pair male was starting to develop a CP. There was also  female Dunnock with a clear BP2.

Dunnock - 1 (1)
Chiffchaff - 3
Goldcrest - 0 (2)
Goldfinch - 2
Long-tailed Tit - 1 (1)
