Broomfield Hall College - Saturday 9 March

This was to be the final visit of the season to the winter feeding site at Broomfield campus. Nets were wind affected from the start, but a little light drizzle early on soon cleared.

We ended up with a reasonable catch of 27 birds, including 15 retraps. Blue Tits made up half the catch, plus a few Great, Coal and Long-tailed Tits and 5 Robins. Only 2 Chaffinch were caught. The bird of the day was the first Nuthatch recorded for the group at this site. 

Thanks to Caitin for keeping the feeders topped up!
