A windy start to the morning, with some nets not used, others opened as the wind came more round to the south-west and dropped slightly. Very few birds around, with just 20 new caught of 6 species.
Gave a short talk to a couple of visitors to the island about the work of the Observatory and showed them a Kungsfågel (Goldcrest) and Rödhake (Robin)
