Sunday 30th June 2024

 

A Corn Bunting is our first ever June record (although we do have a previous mid-summer record on 2nd July). Presumably it's a wandering Juvenile ? Little moving this morning but included southbound 30 Black-headed Gull, single Kittiwake & Curlew. Otherwise a fairly standard mid-summer selection of local breeders & dispersing juveniles from sites nearby.

Seen to be getting a run of Zeiraphera isertana in the traps at the moment whose foodplant is Oak.

Ringing: 3 Chiffchaff, 2 Lesser Whitethroat, 1 Blackcap, 1 Great Spotted Woodpecker.
