August Ringing Totals

 

The museum roof Colour-ringed Herring Gulls are still hanging around

A busier month than last month, as expected, with 288 birds of 28 species ringed throughout the month. 

A hefty chunk of these were Willow Warblers with 108 ringed throughout the month. It was also a busy month for Pied Flycatchers, with light easterly winds producing a good fall, with a total of 18 being ringed on the 15th and 30 in total.
