A dreadful day with a blazing strong SW wind and frequent spells of horrible driving rain making sure that anything was very hard work; this meant that there was no ringing on the last day of the autumn standardized ringing season!   There was a Snow Bunting and a first year Little Gull on the point during a short look out there at lunchtime and that was about it….

Obviously NOT caught today!   But here's a picture of one of the best birds I've ever seen in the hand just to cheer myself up during a horrible wet and windy day!
