Attenborough CES Visit 4, Sunday 2 June

Gary, Duncan, David, Tom and I carried out the 4th CES visit on Sunday. A fine morning, if a little breezy later on, but unfortunately a poor catch was made. There seemed very few birds moving around resulting in a catch of just 20, including 8 retraps. Main highlights were the season's first juvenile birds: singles of Robin, Dunnock and Long-tailed tit. We also caught a control Garden Warbler and the first Jay the group has caught at the site. Hopefully by the time we do visit 5 there will be a few more juvs about.
