Quiet day but...
Today couldn't obviously be as good as yesterday but still brought a few good suprises.
It was another hot summerly day with temperatures reaching above 20 even in early morning and no wind, so only the first round were a bit productive.
The first nice surprise was a chick of a marsh tit. These little birds seem always so tiny in the hand and this one still had fluffy feathers on its belly.
Then, a few round later, when nothing was trapped anymore, I had the surprise to catch one of these bullfinches that have been calling yesterday and this morning and that I can still hear while writing now! It was a 2k female who got trapped and had a brood patch.
Among the retraps, there was nothing particular, mainly breeding birds, mostly lesser white throats.
