We knew it was going to rain this morning so we tried the nightjar again yesterday but were
unsuccessful. Nets were partly open at 10 and partly at 11 this morning, trying to escape
from the last showers of the day. It was windy the rest of the day and even though the nets
were open until 8pm, only 12 birds were ringed today: 4 willow warblers, 4 spotted flycatcher,
1 robin, 1 icterine warbler, 1 chiffchaff and 1 meadow pipit.
This brings us to 2369 birds ringed this spring.
