30th September 2018

Limited nets opened at 0615 and closed at 1215 with just 16 new birds of 8 species.

At least this is the end of a terrible September and we can now hope that October brings a change!!!!!

Niklas and Rasmus headed to SUDD at first light, returning late morning with few birds seen migrating. Currently in the north looking for better luck.

Afternoon was spent writing the monthly report.

There will be five at the Obs overnight: Chris, Kay, Rasmus, Liam and Niklas.
