 Another hot one. Basically baby birds & dispersing juveniles including 3 Song Thrush & Great Spotted Woodpecker. 3 Swallow flew south & the regular Black Red singing on the Fort.

Lots of species wandering in the heat including the nationally scarce Reed Dagger, a species we have less than ten previous records off.

Ringing: 3 Linnet, 3 Song Thrush, 2 House Sparrow, 1 Blackbird, 1 Blue Tit, 1 great Spotted Woodpecker, 1 Robin, 1 Wren.
