Well… sort
of. My garden isn’t exactly the busiest of places to ring. My feeders usually
only entertain a few Blue Tit but a few days ago I noticed a small flock of
Greenfinch helping themselves. I made the most of yesterday’s weather and stuck
the net up for a few hours and managed a
grand total of 7 Greenfinch! Pretty good result for my garden.
This morning
I went out to clouds hill to do a bit of routine maintenance and thought it
would be rude not to stick up a few nets whilst there. Winter is usually very
quiet at the site and today was no different but I did catch a pair of Song
Thrush which were a surprise as usually I only this species in the autumn when
they pass through on migration. One of them was distinctly greyer than the
other which I suppose could suggest continental origin?
