Another NUTHA

Early start on the Farmland Foraging Bird Project in Suffolk this morning. Another disappointing ringing session at Dairy Farm. A breeze blew through the game cover strip all morning, and a sparrowhawk enjoyed chasing all the passerines back and forth, resulting in just two, yes two, birds caught:

CHAFF 3F
LINNE 4F

Both new birds.

Back at home I opened the net for half an hour, and within seconds a Nuthatch found it.

This is the 3rd for the garden since July, so very pleased with that! My wife took the pic.

The totals were:

BLABI 1(1)

GOLDC 1

COATI 1

BLUTI (2)

GRETI 9 (2)

NUTHA 1

Not bad for half an hour's effort.
