Got the year off to a start at Askam Pits, 16 birds processed. New: Great Spotted Woodpecker 1; Wren 1; Robin 1; Blue Tit 4; Great Tit 4; Treecreeper 1; Chaffinch 2.
The retraps were 2 Coal Tits, one of which was first ringed on 2 November 2003, subsequently retrapped on 26/12/2005, and 6/12/2006.
Always pleasing to catch a Treecreeper
Askam Pits: looking west to East across the larger rectangular pit at the top of the Google image in the post below.
Enough reedbed to support a couple of pairs of Reed and Sedge Warblers in the summer.
