Captains Wood & Trimley marshes

Barn Owls have bred for the first time in a box in the large Oak on Blackwalks.  Two chicks were ringed today.

Almost fully fledged

At Trimley Anna and I ringed three more Barn Owl chicks in the Barn.  We also ringed seven Lesser Black-backed Gulls on the rafts.  One of the rafts had 14 Black-headed Gull nests, which all had eggs.
