Ringing in South Northants

Hello

Yesterday (Tuesday) saw Chris Payne commit to some bird ringing at Bradden and Greens Norton, catching 116 birds in total. Common tits predominated but other birds included 17 Goldfinches, 2 Coal Tits, 4 Chaffinches, 2 Nuthatch a Treecreeper and a Goldcrest.

Birds in our garden here at Hanging Houghton are pretty modest currently, but the sunflower hearts feeder is busy with common tits, a couple of Nuthatch and small numbers of Goldfinch coming regularly.

Please note an additional Tab on this blog entitled 'Brazil Revisited'. This is devoted to images taken by Robin Gossage on our trip to Brazil in 2012. Most of these images have not been shown before and the insects in particular are quite amazing. More images will be added in due course...

Regards

Neil M
