We put up six nets behind the recycling works and hoped for something a little less usual from this site. Most of our efforts went into processing Blackcaps that made up over half of the catch. This session was the first without Garden Warbler and there was only one Whitethroat. We had a few Chiffchaff and no Willow Warbler. The bird of the day was undoubtedly a young male Redstart. The first for this and any Colne Valley Ringing Group site.
