A Few More Boxes

I headed to the Moss this morning before the rain came in to check a few more boxes. It was a glorious morning with clear skies and a warm easterly wind. Walking to the Birch scrub where my boxes are located it was great to hear singing Yellowhammer, Corn Bunting, Skylark, Willow Warbler and Whitethroat.

I only had a few boxes to check and ringed two broods of Tree Sparrows and a single brood of Great Tits.

It's more Pied Flycatcher boxes when the weather is forecast to be a bit better on Monday, but tomorrow I might head to the coast for a late spring look on the sea and catch up with the last spring passage waders.
