We've decided against using a picture of 9V-44 for the diary, as it was so terribly ugly. Instead we give you 9V-59, the wannabe Kingfisher! Photo: Carlos Mompó Zornoza

Weather: A lovely day with no wind (calm), sunny and cloudy, thick morning mist and a light rain shower in the early afternoon. Temperature 19 degrees Celsius once the morning cold had passed.

Personel: Carlos, Bruno, Helena, Hannes, Antoine, Marianne, Teresa. Guest: Martin

Weather: Calm. Mostly overcast sky with some rain, leading to early take-down of nets. 

Projects: Great Reed Warbler, Ringing.

The ringing team set out to Vallen early as usual. The lack of wind was promising, but dark clouds were looming on the horizon. The morning started of good, with a fair amount of birds in the nets, but then the rain arrived. Not wanting the nets to become wet again, they were taken down early. Ironically, the raining stopped shortly after...
