Hello
Some ringing in the county this morning included a session in the Scaldwell Bay at Pitsford Reservoir where Dave Francis caught three Mallard, three Long-tailed Tits (including one bird five and a half years old), two Dunnocks, two Robins (one four and a half years old), two Chiffchaffs, two Goldcrests, a Blackbird, a Song Thrush, a Blackcap, a Blue Tit, a Great Tit and a Chaffinch.
At Stortons Gravel Pits John Woollett caught three Long-tailed Tits, six Chiffchaffs, two Reed Buntings, three Reed Warblers, two Robins, three Cetti's Warblers, a Great Tit, two Blue Tits, a Blackcap, a Blackbird and a Wren.
An early visit to Harrington Airfield this morning paid off with migration evidence in the form of a Short-eared Owl, a Peregrine, ca15 Golden Plovers, two Redwings, two redpoll sp, a Reed Warbler and plenty of Linnets, Meadow Pipits and Skylarks.
Several observers at Pitsford Reservoir today were responsible for sightings of up to three Great White Egrets, two Yellow-legged Gulls, two adult Caspian Gulls, the Ruddy Shelduck, two Grey Wagtails and a juvenile Whinchat.
At Staverton today there were four Ravens, two Whinchats and up to ten Siskins.
Grey Wagtails were further in evidence at Hanging Houghton and Brixworth Water Treatment Works
