Broadwater GP - 25th August 2021

Two teams worked the site today, one doing quite well and catching a roving flock while the other team were still on only 15 birds by 10am and, and this being the end of August when numbers should be higher, decided to pack up and go. The run of three nets next to the track through the site is the only place where reasonable numbers of birds tend to turn up in nets. The bailey bridge no longer gets many birds - possibly down to a change in the way birds use the site since HS2 work has been in progress.
