Siskin added to the Shakerley list!

I've been mega busy recently, so I've been unable to do much ringing - hence the lack of blog posts. However with a bit of free time this morning, me & Ciaran headed off to Shakerley & netted the feeding station for an hour or two, before freezing fog put stop to that.



In total 37 birds were trapped of which 30 were new & 7 recaptures. This included two Siskin that came to feed on the nyjer seed, which although we see Siskin at the site - they never seem to come down to the feeders.

Blackbird - 2

Blue Tit - 2 / 2

Bullfinch - 6 / 1

Chaffinch - 1

Dunnock - 1

Goldfinch - 11

Greenfinch - 1

Great Tit - 3 / 3

Reed Bunting - 1 recap

Siskin - 2
