This morning we caught our annual Tree Pipit. Only one this time, where last year we caught
three. It was a young bird in bright, fresh plumage, already on its southerly migration.
It was also good to finally get a catch of Blackcaps, and dare I say it, even Blue Tits, which have
had a terrible breeding season.
Overall it was still markedly quiet though and the only birds that found the net were right next to
the tape lures.
Totals: 13 Blackcap, 9 Blue Tit, 5 Chiffchaff, 5 Great Tit, 2 Garden Warbler, 1 Wren, 1 Willow
Warbler, 1 Tree Pipit, 1 Robin, 1 Dunnock, 1 Coal Tit.
