Broomfield Hall College – Saturday 11 November

We made another visit to the feeding site yesterday. A frosty start, but pleasantly warm in the sun once it came up. A good catch again with 98 individuals processed, including nearly 50% of the birds caught the previous week, so they are sticking around for the free food! 

A few more species were added to the list caught at the site, including Wren, Long-tailed Tit, Treecreeper, Blackbird, Greenfinch and Lesser Redpoll. We have transferred all the seed stored on site into new metal bins as an anti-squirrel measure: they had gnawed right through the old plastic bins.

Buzzards and Tawny Owl were around again along with Nuthatch.
