As blog readers may have noticed....I have a bit of a thing for Marsh Warblers!
....and Blue Tits
The first nice morning in a while this morning, meant that it was CES at Vallen. 61 new birds were caught in total, with 11 recaptures. Highlights came in the form of a Marsh Warbler, which I noticed was a Marsh even as I walked up to the net! (I think I'm getting my eye in now). 4 retrap juvenile Great Reed Warblers and a 2cy male Blue Tit that had a massive wing of 73mm! Swedish Blue Tits eat their Weetabix!Totals from the morning (recaps in brackets)
