Apart from Raven on eggs and 10 Curlew flying about, it still feels and looks like January. No Mipits, Wagtails, Wheatears or Martins yet. Also failed to hear Cettis tonight, but did have 1-2 singing/trilling last week.

Most were ringed and from the photos i took I could see RR01 on one ring. Doubt this is sufficient to be much use though.
