A Spanish ringed Reed Warbler was trapped during a ringing session this morning
and the Swallow roost produced a
catch of 52 during the evening. This was the first catch of Swallows, as the
roost has moved from the traditional reedbed to
a new location. Also two of our leg flagged Turnstones - AR & AT returned
today.
