Finch House Garden - February 2022

 In a month when lengthy periods of extremely windy weather included three names storms in quite quick succession a total of 88 birds were processed. It is interesting to note that the number of retraps almost equalled new birds. Blue Tits were by far the most frequent visitors. The Jay was a resighting of D4 that was ringed in the garden a couple of months before and the retrapped Starling and House Sparrow appear to be birds that will breed locally as we are starting to see these birds about the garden quite frequently.
