Quiet morning at Banvallen. The wind picked up very early and the mist stayed with us most of the morning before it disappeared. We ringed 60 birds of 14 species and got 11 retraps.
DHT and BHN (Great Reed Warbler team) visited us and moved the canoes from the lakes to the station in order to keep them in a safe place for the winter.

Projects: Standardized Ringing
As the weather forecast was quite good we decided to go to Ässön for a ringing session. However the morning was a bit more windy that we would had liked. We managed to ring 47 birds of 16 species, including the first Bullfinch and Coal Tit of the season.
On the other hand, there was a strong migration of different finches species flying in big flocks to the South the whole morning. Wish some of them stop in our nets!
