Sparrows and Sandpipers

Back to Clifton on Friday with another 7 fledged Tree Sparrows ringed and one adult bird. Bringing the total of juveniles ringed up to 21 and Adults up to 13. Since December i have only caught 2 Tree Sparrows twice. As with the young i have only caught two young birds twice and have visited the site twice weekly for 3 weeks. Also ringed Greenfinches, Chaffinches and Gt Tits.

Common Sandpipers seem to be breeding well with 6 chicks ringed this week also 2 more Wheatear ringed. Andy is back from his jollys so off to see how the rest of our boxes are doing tomorrow.
