Managed to find a small gap in the seemingly endless rain and completed the final winter CES session at Broomfield today, eleventh visit overall. We set all the usual nets, including the Redwing nets, despite not catching any last week. The catch was again quite low given the relatively calm and overcast conditions. We caught 28 birds throughout the morning. Of these, 12 were retraps, including the regular male Nuthatch and another new male. There were a few Redwing around and we managed to catch 5. A Tawny owl was heard calling again when we arrived on site and 3 Buzzards were soaring overhead at one point.
