May Ringing Totals

A total of 251 birds of 31 species were ringed during the month. In 2014, a total of 310 birds were during the month of May but due to the wet and windy weather this year, at times, migration in May was halted so not as good a month of ringing as it could have been but all the same a very productive month.
