Barn Owl sighting at Chelmarsh ( and Starlings ! )
Tuesday 18th October:
After dark : fantastic sighting of Barn Owl as turned off main road onto track up to Dinney Farm. Followed it all the way along - stunning acrobatics along the hedgerow, lit up in the headlights.
Forgot to mention 40-50 Starlings looking to roost on Sunday - sadly not near the nets !

Another productive afternoon / roost at Chelmarsh
Sunday 16th October 2011:
Dave, Joe, James, myself and for the first time new trainee Denise ... hedge nets, three double nets in main bed and two doubles over Baxter's.
Dave, Joe, James, myself and for the first time new trainee Denise ... hedge nets, three double nets in main bed and two doubles over Baxter's.
Good numbers, good birds caught : 1 Brambling , 57 Reed Bunting , 1 Pied Wagtail, 11 Blue Tit, 1 Yellowhammer, 5 Wren, 4 Robin, 4 Great Tit, 6 Long-tailed Tit, 3 Lesser Redpoll, 4 Song Thrush, 2 Blackbird, 1 Goldfinch, 1 Dunnock
House Sparrow RAS - no joy !
Thursday 13th October 2011:
Once again our RAS colour-ringing attempts to capture House Sparrows proved disappointing ... to say the least. Zero ! We have at least identified a very promising roost site for future attempts.
Despite many nets and good time investment, near perfect weather conditions, Linda and I only managed to catch: 2 Chaffinch, 4 Dunnock, 3 Blue Tit and a Robin !
Overhead: Skylark, Meadow Pipit moving and first Redwing and Fieldfares
