18 nets opened at 0415, with some closed at 1100 and the rest at 1145.
A total of 15 new birds of 10 species, the best of which was a Bändelkorsnäbb (Two-barred Crossbill), a second year female. Only the 6th of the species ever caught at the Obs, the other five all being in the autumn of 2013.
Though the nets were once more run only by Kay, Chris was able to give a guided talk at 1130 to 13 people.
In the afternoon, Kay ringed a further 4 birds: Sädesärla (White Wagtail) chicks in Tore’s fishing shed.
There will be three at the Obs overnight: Chris, Kay & Mark.
