Today wasa great day as I woke up so excited about what we were going to ring and the numbers.
Matt told me that this is perfect time for a trainee to go ringing as there were the least amount of birds (50 on average).
Here is the full list of birds we caught with the re-encounters in brackets (which one of the ringers told me is a new term as it sounds less harsh, compared to re-trap):
Chiffchaff 1, Whitethroat 2 (2), Reed Warbler 6 (3), Sedge Warbler 3 (1), Blackcap 1 (1), Robin 5, Wren 1 (1), Dunnock 1 (6 ), Blackbird 2 (4), Song Thrush 0 (2), Great Tit 1 (1), Blue Tit 0 (1), Long Tailed Tit 4 (3), Treecreeper 0 (1), Bullfinch 2, Carrion Crow 1, Starling 1, Great Spotted Woodpecker 0 (1)
I ringed a long-tailed tit, Reed warbler, juvenile Robin, Treecreeper and held the Great spotted woodpecker.
