A cool north westerly breeze continued to keep us warm enough, however extra fleeces were needed early on in the early hours of the morning. Very few birds about this morning with new migrants today included 3 Goldfinch, 42 Swift, 4 Swallow and 1 Skylark that dropped in onto the nature reserve early morning. 2 Mediterranean Gulls were also seen.

In the moth traps this morning was this Green Silver-lines, an absolute beauty and the first of the year for us.

Ringing: 7 birds ringed during the morning including 4 Greenfinch, 1 Goldfinch, 1 Woodpigeon and 1 Robin.
