Hello
Dave Francis embarked on some further ringing at the main feeding station at Pitsford Reservoir today, catching 67 birds of 17 species. Finches were made up of 15 Goldfinches, a Greenfinch, a Redpoll and 6 Chaffinches. Other birds included a Reed Bunting, 3 Yellowhammers, 6 Tree Sparrows, 7 Dunnocks, 2 Wrens, a Goldcrest, 2 Coal Tits, 2 Great Tits and 4 Blue Tits. A fresh pulse of thrushes came in the form of a Fieldfare, 3 Redwings, 2 Song Thrushes and 10 Blackbirds.
Three ringers operating at Glyn Davies Wood west of Boddington today caught 152 birds (114 new and 38 re-traps) of 15 species. Woodland birds included 70 Blue Tits, 28 Great Tits, 8 Coal Tits, 4 Marsh Tits, a Long-tailed Tit, 4 Nuthatches and 5 Great Spotted Woodpeckers. Other birds were made up of 2 Wrens, 6 Robins, a Dunnock, 7 Goldcrests, a Treecreeper, a Bullfinch, 4 Blackbirds and 10 Redwings.
A study of the gull roost at Boddington Reservoir after the nearby ringing session provided views of two Caspian Gulls (an adult and a 4th year/adult), an adult Yellow-legged Gull, a Kingfisher and a Grey Wagtail.
