Although I have been out and about I have seen very little. It would seem that things have gone quiet.  The Cattle Egret remains at Pitsford Reservoir and the only other bird of note reported was a Marsh Harrier at Polebrook Airfield.

Neil undertook a ringing session at Brixworth today. 58 birds were processed including 3 retraps, a Reed Warbler and Swallow from 2019. I wonder how many miles these birds have travelled during this time.  The other retrap was a local blackbird.      Only 7 species of bird at this session, Magpie, Chiffchaff, Reed Warbler, Pied Wagtail, Blackbird, Starling and Swallow.
