November 2015

The weekend weather was not kind for group training sessions and most ringing was in gardens or one-to-one sessions with limited nets when conditions allowed.

However, numbers built up to a healthy 291 ringed plus 150 retraps. Top species was Lesser Redpoll with 109; 106 from Tythebarns, followed by Goldcrest on 46; 28 from Bedfont.

Bedfont also made a late challenge to Woolley Firs’ Firecrest supremacy, with 2 on 28th and Chobham managed 10 Redwing and 7 Reed Bunting. 3 Blackcap, 5 Chiffchaff and 9 Siskin were noteworthy from the sites in use.
