Easy day

lørdag 7. april 2018
af Robert Luttik

The weather forecast for the day was good: no rain, sunny and wind approximately 7 m/s, Therefore, I decided to open all nets this morning (there was backup available in case of many birds). But help was not necessary. Almost no new birds did arrive overnight. So, it was an easy day. In total 37 new birds ringed. No special things have happened except that in the second round I found all of sudden three Coal tits (Sortmejse) very close together in the net. I like this species, it is such a nice tiny little bird. Less aggressive than some of the other tits, like for instance the Blue tit (Blåmejse).

There was some migration today: I saw a group of cranes going north and after closing the nets I saw a Long-tailed tit (Halemejse).

Only two pictures today:
