Today we joined EP for a last ditch effort to complete CES 9. The other usuals were unavailable so the team was limited to EP, CL and DKL.
It was a very windy morning but the site was sheltered and only one net was really affected. We processed 75 new and 10 retrapped birds including a Great Tit X270726, known to be no less than five years old. Only nine of the birds came from a single non-CES net.
Totals: 75 (10)
Kingfisher - 0 (1)
Wren - 5
Robin - 3
Dunnock- 4 (2)
Blackbird - 1
Reed Warbler - 12 (3)
Sedge Warbler - 1
Blackcap - 13 (1)
Garden Warbler - 2
Chiffchaff - 9
Blue Tit - 17 (2)
Great Tit - 3 (1)
Long-tailed Tit - 4
Treecreeper - 1
4M Blackcap Y224537
