Great Moor Sailing Club - 20th August 2017 - Two very productive nets

Warren and I had another good session at the sailing club yesterday. 72 new and 4 retraps, all bar 5 in two nets, a 60' and 40'.

We used a walk-in trap to catch a moorhen and managed to nab one of the swan family by hand.

Interestingly only one reed warbler and no sedge warblers but good numbers of whitethroat, blackcap, chiffchaff and willow warbler.

Also noticed a couple of late swifts hawking and a small passage of tree pipit.
