September 25th
An extremely slow morning's ringing at Shuart came to an abrupt end when we received a text from Mark Chidwick to say that he had found a Hoopoe (178th) near the church at Hillborough. Unfortunately we could not relocate it, however during the morning at Shuart and Hillborough we saw 3 Red-legged Partridges, 7 Ring-necked Parakeets, 8 Chiffchaffs, 6 Blackcaps, 3 Grey Herons, 1 Green Woodpecker, 6 Long-tailed Tits, 4 Common Buzzards, 40 Meadow Pipits, 10 Linnets, 2 Jays and 2 Grey Wagtails.

Birds ringed 8: Chiffchaff 3, Robin 2, Blackcap 2, Blackbird 1.
