Ringed Plover with young (Allan King)
Thursday 7th June 2012
A few wandering juvenile Great Tits and Linnets just about managed to hold interest on the ringing front this morning. A single Reed Warbler was heard but avoided capture. Another Hobby passed through, as well as a handful of the usual Terns, a Kittiwake and a dozen Common Scoter. The Ringed Plovers still prevail but with bad weather coming their fate is uncertain. Also today our first juvenile Lesser Whitethroats of the year appeared to have fledged, hopefully the 3 pairs on site will manage to produce a good number of young.
