And a few Bunts out of the Reeds!

Managed to get a net up late this afternoon to try to catch some of the Reed Buntings coming into the phragmites around the lake fringe at Little Bofus.

Nowhere near as many birds there as there were the other day (probably about 50 REEBU in the flock), but had a small catch:

ROBIN 1
LOTTI 1
BLUTI 1
REEBU 5

A couple of Pied Wagtails spent an hour flying around, over, and even trying to walk under the net, but neither of them actually found a pocket. Shame, that would have been nice.
