Good numbers of young Linnet at present.

Couple of migrants noted including 4 Turnstone, Coal Tit (another dispersing juv), Reed Warbler & Willow Warbler plus southbound 6 Swallow, 5 Swift & 2 Siskin. Are the Siskin failed breeders or dispersing juveniles at this time of the year ? Mrs Mallard has 10 ducklings not 8 as noted yesterday by a myopically inept individual.


Light Brocade occasionally visits and is probably present here in small numbers on Bramble.

Ringing: 3 Linnet, 1 Blackbird, 1 Dunnock, 1 Great Tit.
