This morning our first Garden Warbler of the 2023 campaign was one of 131 birds ringed, this total included 4 Tree Pipits and a Grasshopper Warbler.
Birds of prey were prominent today as Osprey, Hen Harrier, Merlin and Goshawk (the latter species angrily mobbed by a pair of Sparrowhawks) were all spotted, also today Pied Flycatcher and at least 5 Ring Ouzels.
Belated news our first Common Swift of 2023 was seen yesterday.
