Willow Warblers were a feature of the ringing this morning, along with smaller numbers of Blackcaps Sedge and Reed Warblers and, later in the morning, Whitethroats. 50 birds ringed. (Will put the ringing totals on tomorrow.) A similar movement took place at Leighton Moss where 60 birds were caught.
Med Gull count at the outfalls today = 8
The only other birds of note at Middleton NR were 2 Water Rails squealing, A Skylark over, heading eastwards and a Kingfisher calling on the reedbed pond.
