Good day today with 71 ringing ! Many blackcaps and robins in the nets. It feels like automn, ringing a wren and the first song trush wearing a fleece ! But then the sun warmed the air, and the number of birds decline quickly. Tomorrow should be cloudy, could we expect more birds ? Let see what will happen...

A small boat trip the evening bring us waders: 5 knots, 7 redshanks, 1 greenshank, 1 sanderling. And a peregrine.
An unknow owl was hunting around the nets this morning, we set up a special net for it, fingers crossed !
