Redpoll at Point

All set for a good day at the Point of Ayre just a small breeze as i set up. The first catch was

 4 new Goldfinch and 5 re traps

1 Linnet 

and

 2  Lesser Redpolls

Now the weather here on the isle of Man has been none stop wind for 2 months and we haven't had the chance to get up to the plantations to try for Redpoll yet, so today they came to me :-)

And that was it, 3 hours later not another bird ringed.

There was a report of Snow Bunting near the Lighthouse this morning so i went for a look i

couldn't find it but saw T9TR on the shore.

Ringed at the Point of Ayre gravel pits on July 12 this year
