Early rain showers, combined with an increasing wind delayed net opening and restricted the number of nets in use.
After catching over 500 birds in the last three days todays catch was a very disappointing 2 birds of two species.
With very strong West winds forecast tomorrow and rain all day Saturday, more nets were removed today, with a few left in place that might be sheltered enough to open tomorrow – we’ll see!!
More end of season work this afternoon.
There will be two at the Obs overnight; Chris & Kay.
