Wendover 18th June 2017 CES #5


A beautiful warm, calm morning awaited us.  An excellent catch looked on the cards until the temperature began to rise rapidly when the birds largely disappeared.   In fact over half of the birds trapped arrived in a single round at 05:30.   Juvenile finches (GOLDF, CHAFF an BULLF) made their first appearances as did a single juvenile BLACA.   DUNNO seem to be doing well and a male was retrapped for the 7th time after being first ringed as a 4M in May 2012.   No BLUTI or GRETI were trapped.
