Getting Sites ready

Out and about the last few days putting up feeders and cutting back net rides for the coming seasons.
23 New birds ringed at the Dog Mills site 
3 of them Reed Bunting
10 Blue Tits
6 Gt Tits
3 Chaffinch
1 Robin

also
2 Retraps Gt Tits and 1 retrap Blue Tit from 2010


New net ride in reed bed
Today I met Kev at Close Sartfield where we now have permission off Manx Wildlife Trust to ring birds

We put two nets up and spent the day looking round the site for some ideas
only 3 Tits caught and one was an adult Gt Tit with a B ring on
so we knew it had been ringed as a chick in a box.
 Just as we were packing up a flock of Redpoll flew over, typical.

2 hours later i got a text of Kev to say the Gt Tit was ringed as a chick on the 20 May 2004 in a box
at the wildlife park which is at the back of Close Sartfield .
6 Years 9 Months old
