In many respects a similar day to yesterday but a singing Greenfinch is a novelty these days. Also Female Sparrowhawk circling above the observatory early AM. The Ring Ouzel has made it to day 20 making it a Landguard record breaker. Also to report 2 Reed Warbler and 11 Swallow. In the evening 168 Brent Geese North and Common Sandpiper heard on the river.
Fledging Robins have been hopping around the undergrowth. We have ringed four of the young reared here but today we ringed a dispersing juvenile from elsewhere.
Pine Knot-horn Dioryctria abietella is a pine wood specialist. It last graced us with its presence in 2021.
Ringing: 1 Magpie, 1 Robin.
