2nd October

Unlike the summer weather experienced yesterday, today was a lot cooler with regular drizzle and rain.  Ringing was slow going with only 13 birds trapped. These included 5 goldfinch, 2 blackbirds and singles of robin, wren, redwing, song thrush, blackcap and brambling.

The bird of the day had to be a fly-over Blyth's pipit that was found by Paul Cook.  The bird was not refound despite a long search.
