Not the frosty morning that we'd hoped for, but it was cold and the ground was very hard. We found a line where the apples were not yet eaten and put up a triple row of thrush nets followed by a double of 19*19 mesh 18ms. We also tried a double in a corner often favoured by the thrushes and a final single where we may get a few finches.
It turned out to be a little on the slow side with quality being the case rather than quantity, but it's always a pleasure to catch Redwing and Fieldfare however few and we even managed a Mistle Thrush.
CVG had joined us and was pleased to ring three species not usually present at her usual ringing sites.
