3/7/2016 CES 6 - Late again

A day late for the CES session again. We'll be getting a reputation soon. All down to the poor weather is our excuse.
However Heather and Chris took advantage of a short window of opportunity just a day late. It was well worth it as we had a better catch and two less than usual birds for a CES session, namely a Lesser Whitethroat and a Treecreeper.
Also included in the catch was a control, so we await with interest where this Reed Warbler may have first been caught. Watch this space.
The CES total of 30 birds was well up on recent years so fingers crossed for the year total. The fact that we have only had 2 Sedge Warblers in the catch this season is not good news though.

Not much else to report on the day and no photos I'm afraid, the treecreeper looked far too glum to publish its pic.

Totals for the day:
