I had my small net up in the garden for a while during the early afternoon and caught - Reed Bunting (4) Starling (1) Goldfinch (1) and Blackcap (1 female).The Blackcap was the first ringed in the garden this winter.

Since the start of the year my garden ringing total stands at - Robin (2) Reed Bunting (13) Starling (1) Long-tailed Tit (10) Goldfinch (3) Blue Tit (2) Blackcap (1) and Dunnock (1).

While I was taken down the net at 2.45 a RAVEN flew over the garden calling as it went,it was heading north towards Halling.
