Broadwater GP - 13th August 2018

After the Sunday session was cancelled due to the possibility of rain and high winds, we were there this morning wondering whether there would be many birds on site.

The usual routine here is to get a few birds from most rounds with the chance of a hit as a flock moves through one of the nets.

There were no big hits today and birds had all but dried up by 9:00am but much of the catch were Willow Warblers and we also go some Reed Warblers and a couple of Whitethroats. There weren't too many Blackcap with no Garden Warblers. There was also another Treecreeper.
