Ringing at Linford Lakes, Milton Keynes

Hello

Kenny Cramer and team have completed a couple of ringing sessions at Linford Lakes, Milton Keynes this month, netting a variety of interesting birds for conservation and scientific purposes.

On the 14th May fifty-four birds included seven Blackcaps, five Garden Warblers, twelve Reed Warblers, four Sedge Warblers and singles of Cetti's Warbler, Chiffchaff and Willow Warbler. A Cuckoo was also caught and ringed as was a Carrion Crow which are rarely caught during such sessions.

On the 22nd May some forty-five birds were processed which included sixteen Reed Warblers, three Garden Warblers, two Blackcaps and two more Cuckoos!
