Deepdale Farm - 16th April 2023

 A drop in wind speed gave an opportunity to monitor this elevated coastal site. It was a disappointing result with only 10 birds processed, of which 6 were new.  Comparing the numbers to the same date last year when we processed 37 birds seems to support our general impression that things are progressing a little more slowly than last year.
