Nets opened at 0715 in a thick mist which remained through the whole day. Very few birds around, with just 18 new birds of 9 species by the time ringing finished at 1100.
Afternoon has been spent checking the remaining nest boxes to clean them and repair a few. All now finished ready for the 2019 season.
More end of season tasks later on.
There will be two at the Obs overnight; Chris & Kay.
