A ringing demo to support Leaf Farm Open Day at Deepdale Farm. We were a little worried that the keen wind may affect catching but had 5 birds during the time that we had visitors with plenty of information to tell regarding ageing indicators, breeding condition and a few permanent residents. All went very well, with a Lesser Whitethroat our 'best bird', although our visitors loved them all! There were no young birds during their visit, but a family party of Great Tits caught just as we were taking down swelled our total to 14.
