Stanwell Moor - 26 June 2012
We made another visit to the site tonight, in what is feeling like a rare occurence this spring/summer. No Hirundines were caught, but a couple of Starlings from the roost were caught, with the birds all over the ringing area this evening, together with another new 3J Cetti's Warbler, plus a re-trap of the one the previous visits birds. We re-caught L271161 which is new bird at the site this year, originally having been rung on 25/7/2010 at Bedfont. In total 16 new birds were processed, with 11 birds being 3Js of various species.
