Two male Grasshopper Warblers were caught today; one was a new bird and the other was a retrap, a returning young bird that fledged on site in 2010.  Other observations of note included Water Rail, Marsh Harrier, Garden Warbler and the first young Reed Warblers of the summer.

Earlier in the week, two young Little Owls were ringed from the Barn Owl box located in the huge oak tree in the meadow.
