Carlton Marsh

21 birds ringed this morning included 10 Reed Warblers, 1 Whitethroat, 2 Blackcaps 1 Sedge Warbler and 4 Chiffchaffs. Reed Warbler Y392739 was ringed here as a juvenile on 4/8/14.

A return visit this evening saw the 1st summer Iceland Gull on the wader scrape at 19.15hrs. It was flushed by grazing horses at 19.30hrs, but not sure which way it went. An adult BH Gull was present with a white Darvic ring right leg, but too far away to read it.
