Holme Pierrepont – Saturday 25 May

Due to the visit dates for the CES at Attenborough, and with the hope of catching more birds, we
ventured to Skylarks NR this weekend. The weather was patchy sunshine, which didn’t
lend itself well to mist-netting. However, it was a welcome change to the constant rain! Despite half
the net rides being in water, all the nets went up. It was a very quiet morning, with only 16 birds.
Warblers were particularly thin on the ground, with only three Reed Warblers this time. We also
caught one Greenfinch, and four juvenile passerines – the first of the year from our visits.
