Monday 1st August 2022

First day of August also saw the first 3 willow warblers of the autumn. Despite a strong start however and seemingly perfect conditions, both observations and ringing became an uphill struggle. A leucistic starling amongst the hundreds on the reserve was notable, although only seen by one person.


Moths were a lot better, with the first site record of Channel Islands Pug. The first Suffolk records were only yesterday, we were 24 hours away from a Suffolk first, but 3rd isn't too bad!

Birds Ringed: Dunnock 1, Goldfinch 4, House Sparrow 2, Linnet 1, Starling 1, Willow Warbler 2
