Another busy session at Linford produced 92 captures, 69 of which were newly ringed and 23 retraps of 20 species.

Sarah and I made an early start to see if we could catch any sandmartins coming out of roost and were rewarded with 2 new adults and 2 retraps.

Other highlights included 15 new reed warblers, a juvenile sedge warbler, a willow warbler, a garden warbler, 2 juvenile chiffchaffs and a retrap cettis representing the warblers.
