Reed Buntings at Kenfig

Dave fitted in a brief session before work this morning putting a 60' net near the bunting feeding area between the two car parks. Seven new birds were caught.

The feeding area comprises a small lawn area with a single pile of wheat and millet which is topped up daily. Piling seeds seems to work better than scattering them.

A song thrush's anvil was right next to the net but no thrushes were caught.

The net was up for an hour and 30 minutes and caught 8 birds; a good time to total ratio for Kenfig!
