Tuesday 11th August 2015

A ringing session at Oxwich Marsh NNR, so an early star leaving home at 04:30hrs on site in plenty of time, although not sure where the sat-nav sent me this morning??

A steady session with 101 processed, including a couple of Grasshopper warblers, Blackcaps and Willow Warblers seemed to make up the majority of this mornings catch.

The Grasshopper Warblers will soon be leaving for tropical Africa to spend the winter.

Grasshopper Warbler, Locustella naevia.
