The morning started with drizzle that was not in the forecast. We continued to put up a triangle for Meadow Pipits, a double for thrushes, a single in a small copse and a long 2 panel net for Stonechat.
The weather soon cleared and we captured birds in a slow trickle. There were not many pipits about, thrushes began to appear at around 10am, but did not managed to find our net with audio-lure. The two panel failed to catch any Stonechats with just a few of the influx of Robins being caught. The single got a few residents. Other birds seen included Marsh Harrier 2, Buzzard 1, Sparrowhawk 1, Stonechat 3+, Great Spotted Woodpecker 1, Linnet approximately 10, and among the arriving birds several Redwing, Blackbird and Chaffinch plus a Brambling.
