The last Xbill ringed here was 15 years ago so this young male was a most welcome visitor.

Southbound 161 Swift, 15 Curlew, 14 Black-headed Gull, 12 Med Gull, 8 Crossbill, 4 Sand Martin, 4 Swallow, 2 Oyk, Grey Wagtail & Whimbrel. Otherwise its baby birds time of the year.


Double Lobed is apparently common enough nationally but a very scarce visitor to our traps.

Ringing: 4 Whitethroat, 2 Linnet, 1 Chiffchaff, 1 Crossbill, 1 Dunnock, 1 Great Tit.
