Another quiet day with little to report. 2 snow buntings another new chiffchaff 1 lesser redpoll over and the pair of peregrines on or around the nest tray. Little else of note on the bird front but a common seal offshore 3 small tortoiseshells in the compound and smooth newts are starting to appear in bigger numbers in the moat. On the ringing front just 4 birds were ringed today 2 blackbirds 1chiffchaff and 1 robin.
