Things are on the move...

It's now well in to September, and a good time to see/hear migrating birds. This morning myself and Tony headed to one of our local ringing sites (Gahrhiw) in an attempt to catch some Meadow Pipits. Despite there not appearing to be too many about, after 3 hours of catching we ended up catching 47 different birds. So although we never saw more than 20 or so at a time, it proved that many different birds were indeed passing through this area!

This little chap was trying to hitch a free ride!
