Frost and sunshine....
At last some decent weather and the chance to put some nets up to have go at ringing..
With all the puddles frozen and the saltmarsh feeling crispy underfoot it felt like ideal conditions to have a go.
With hopes set high it was disappointing that there were no stupid Skylarks tempted to enter the net set on the marsh, yet there were plenty singing.
Another quiet session, but all new birds with just five ringed, Wren 2, Dunnock 2, Robin 1, Blackbird 1.
Still a great morning to be out, Adam Dare a local birder popped by and showed me a photo of a BRAMBLING he had seen on the reserve boundary!!!!!, this brings the year total species so far to 75. Great record thanks Adam.
