September totals

Having set up our feeding station a few weeks ago its now time to start using it, a couple of sessions has resulted in the following totals.
Wren 1, Robin 1 (2), Blackbird 1., Blackcap 2, Chiffchaff 2, Goldcrest 14 (1), Marsh Tit (2),
Coal Tit 17 (5), Blue Tit 15 (4), Great Tit 10 (11) one being from 2007, Nuthatch 5 (2), Treecreeper 1, Chaffinch 2, Greenfinch 1, Bullfinch 1 and Reed Bunting 1, making 83 new and 27 retraps. We also have a small breeding population of Meadow Pipits on the site and some chicks have been ringed this year, so with all the Mipits on and around the site at the moment we are hoping we might retrap them, but so far among the 43 that we have had, no luck as yet.
