December 5th
Fairly quiet but still a few nice birds around in the shape of a Black Redstart on Braye quay, 1 Grey Plover on Braye beach and 6 Mediterranean Gulls on the high tide roost in Braye bay.
We thought it likely we might catch a few Thrushes this morning after yesterdays PM birding and that we did with another 20 new birds ringed on Longis common 17 of which were Thrushes. See ringers pages for full list.
A stat that I did not expect to be reporting this year is that today we ringed our 400th Wren ! With 400 birds that puts Wren just in our top ten most common birds ringed this year.
