We went to monitor the birds in the beaver enclosure at Sculthorpe Moor today and for the first time in a few months were joined by DKH. Numbers were a little better than our last session there, bolstered by a few more Chiffchaff and, strangely, four Treecreeper. At this time of year 17 isn't too bad considering there were no tits, Dunnocks or Wrens captured, probably a reflection of the number of residents already sitting on eggs.
We processed our first Willow Warblers for the year today.
