Sunday 6th November 2011 :
Dave, Joe, James, Denise and I: 2 hedge nets, 5 in reedbed, 2 in corner of scrape.
Totals: 37 Reed Bunting, 1 Blackcap, 1 Long-tailed Tit, 1 Chaffinch, 1 Lesser Redpoll, 2 Blackbird, 1 Wren and 1 Bullfinch
Near misses : 2 Sparrowhawks hit net and escaped, 1 Moorhen caught but escaped as we approached and a roosting flock of c200 Starling dropped away from catching area ... we could have been much busier
First cold evening really - 5 degrees and falling by the finish
