Ty'n Y Caeau - Open for Business - 6/2/18

After a wait of almost a year we are back ringing at the farm. Hard to believe the last visit was 17th Feb 2017.
We had cleared the site and set up the feeders a couple of weeks ago hoping the weather would be picking up.
Kirsty, Steve, and Chris met at 07:30 and it was with a degree of anticipation that we set up the nets (3x60', 2x40'), as Steve had been at the site the previous day reporting that there were plenty of birds about.
It looked pretty good from the start and the session as a whole was very productive.
The total compares favourably with the total birds caught at the farm last year (58). We have to hope that we can get back there soon.

Totals for the day:

  1. A decent return of GREFI, given their continued demise across the country, https://app.bto.org/birdtrends/species.jsp?year=2017&s=grefi
