CES V2 - Chalton 09/05

Fortunately the wind had abated slightly, enabling the session to go ahead.

The catch was reasonable with 20 birds of 11 species made up of 12 new and 8 re-traps.
Wren 0/1, Dunno 0/1, Blabi 2/1, Sonth 1/0, Sedwa 3/2, Reewa 1/2, Leswh 1/0 (the first this year here), White 2/0, Blaca 1/0, Lotti 0/1, Chaff 1/0. The oldest bird was a female Sedwa from mid-May 2006.

We await 2 special, 2-panel SF nets; in the meantime we are having to substitute 3-ply, 1.5 inch mesh nets.
