October ends

Well another few hours at the Whoosh site with 14 Birds ringed
9 New Goldfinch
5 new Linnets
Male Sparrowhawk hanging around most of the time and female Merlin racing through

October has been a very windy month here on the isle of Man
which means Mist netting has been out of the question for most of it

Good job we have the Whoosh site which can be operated in windier conditions

422 New birds caught at the Point of Ayre Whoosh site in October


295 Goldfinch


95 Linnets in October 
501 in 2011 so far
397 in 2010


13 Twite


12 Meadow Pipits



4 Lesser Redpoll


3 Chaffinch


as the weather get colder i expect the Linnet flock to get bigger 
and more Twite should turn up over the next few weeks
