Wintersett Res: Chiffchaff 4 ringed. Blackcap 2 ringed. One weighed 24.1grams (usual weight is 17-18grams) This bird will be capable of flying to Africa without refuelling. 2 Reed Warblers were also caught. One weighed 14.4grams It was originally ringed on 27/09/12 when it weighed 10.7 grams The weight gain of this bird would probably enable it to reach SW Iberia, where it could refuel on its way to West Africa.
