Cudworth - Carlton Marsh

The Willow Tit 'Back from the Brink' summit was held at Bow Street Council offices this morning. People from all over the Barnsley,Wakefield and Doncaster areas attended. A slide show was eloquently provided by Sophie Pinder and Geoff Carr with training given on surveying methods etc. After dinner at Carlton Marsh some of the group actively took part in searching for Willow Tit.
Earlier Vivien Hartwell texted to say that she had tracked yesterday's tagged bird (Blue left leg) and another (yellow left leg) for 1 km along the old disused railway line towards Rabbit Ings.

Bittern flew across the main scrape to roost at 17.30hrs (Dave Standish) Dave also tells me there is a Holly Oak/Holm Oak (Quercus ilex) evergreen tree at nearby Allied Bakeries with c100 Greenfinch roosting on Wednesday 21st!
