Well back to the bracing wind and cold of a late November day !
Both the new ponds are holding water well despite the low rainfall of recent months, I find myself almost wishing for it to pour down in torrents, but only at night on a week day. There is hardly any food for the the thrushes either and no sign of a roost. So four Redwings caught was a plus today, these birds all had the biometrics of european birds. No sign of Redpolls flying around just a small flock of Goldcrests. A retrap Cetti's female and a juvenile MarshTit were the highlights of the morning along with the cake.
