I was away this weekend but please find Dave's summary below -
The breezy conditions of Friday afternoon restricted the ringing on No1 bed to the more sheltered sites resulting in twelve birds caught, all new with eleven warblers including eight Chiffchaffs. Saturday morning was more settled and 53 birds were caught on No1 (49 new), including the third Sparrowhawk of the year for the bed.
Kierhan and Hugh worked No3 bed on the Saturday, catching 125 birds (100 new), including 65 new warblers, with 35 Blackcaps and 15 Reed Warblers comprising the bulk of them.
Sightings included a Hobby and a Tawny Owl on No1, while 3 Tree Pipits, 3 Grey Wagtails, 2 Tawny Owls, 1 Marsh harrier and a Curlew were all seen on No3 bed.
