Last Chelmarsh ringing of 2014 - small Reed Bunting roost

Tuesday 30th December 2014 :

Linda and Stuart set up a couple of rides ( iron path and central main bed ) for the dusk roost. Cold and frosty, with ice everywhere, and temperatures dropped like a stone as sun went down. We had hoped for Starlings, but only two came in to circle.

In the end we caught :

21 Reed Bunting, 1 Wren ( ringed in June as a youngster ), 1 Song Thrush, 1 Starling, 1 Blackbird
