Its getting to look a bit parched out there although the brambles & Elders on the reserve are of a hardy variety.

On the move southbound 3 Curlew & a Sand Martin apart from which its down to the local breeders. A dispersing juvenile Blackcap paid a visit on its pre-migration wanderings.

Always pleasing to get a visitation from a Pale Prominent which lives on Poplars so, in theory, we should see more off them.

19 birds ringed: 8 Linnet, 7 House Sparrow, 2 Wren, 1 Blackcap, 1 Goldfinch.
