4th April

A firecrest had been seen in the gardens of the Shearwater estate during the week so John, Walter and I went down to set some nets in the hope that we catch it. We didnt trap the firecrest; however we did trap two male chiffchaffs, two male chaffinches and a pair of retrap great tits. We had a walk around the Whitburn Point nature Reserve and felt that it had good potential for trapping birds and made it our plan for the next session.
