Doc.B's Nature Blog

Any Monty Python fans will understand!! Well for starters it rained enough to settle the dust.Don say i didn’t tell you. LOL.I keep telling my friends, trust me I’m a doctor. Being a weather forecaster must be a nightmare, look at poor Michael Fish (For those old enough to remember him) W.wind it wasn’t for sure,God damn Levanter, which where I live and ring is a real downer normally. So yesterday I eventually got to the site ,dragging my long suffering wife along ,by 08.00,already getting light.But got the 3 usual nets uo by 09.00,1 in some fab jungle in the river bed,and tuther 2 in typical Mediterranean type dry scrub.Luckily it was relatively calm for 1st 2 rounds so had time to take a few pictures for the blog and even grab a cuppa and breakfast. So trapped and ringing usual birds for the site at this time of year,7 migrant Blackcaps,2 ocal Sardinian Warblers,Blue Tit,a passage Chaffinch and Common Chiffchaff.Havent gotten used to this site yet so not going to risk loosing the text so am posting then try to add some photos.
