Weather: constant dropping early morning and stormy later
Projects: Ringing
Standardised ringing
Ässön was interesting today, but we had to stand for being wet. We got the surprise of two white wagtails falling into the nets from the group which always wander over the bridge. Thrushes migration over the ringing site ignore the taping, but siskins were as pleased as always to here our taping. At 10:30 the dropping became into the perfect storm, which catch us during taking down nets.
