Only had a few hours ringing before work this morning but it was definatly worth it. Final totals of the morning were 36 re-traps and 30 ringed including 19 blackcap, 2 chiffchaff, 1 willow warbler and a cracking adult male turtle dove. Also present were 2 tawny owl, med gull and 8 fiedlfare.

Added ring ouzel (154) to the yearlist with a female on the grazing marsh this morning and also flushed a male from the side of the road at Choseley on the way back from the post office.
