Middleton Nature Reserve
Ringing and vis report from Jean.
The vis was a bit better today in between the weather fronts:
Pink-footed Goose 4
Teal 2
Swallow 89
Grey Wagtail 7
Meadow Pipit 85
Goldfinch 30
Reed Bunting 1
Snipe 1 flew in from the west and dropped in.
Ringing was worse! But at least all the birds were migrants:
Chiffchaff 2
Blackcap 2
Robin 1
Meadow Pipit 1
Pete managed - Today’s “highlights” for me were flocks of six juvenile pheasants and four f/imm roe deer on the ringing track.
No other reports and I didn't get out today (MD)
