Today was the day, the day the Blue Tits finally arrived in big numbers, this time we were prepared, we had a few more pairs of hands to help us. The garden was full of them, you could hear them everywhere. A blue carpet swallowing up the garden. In total today we ringed 815 birds. 657 of these birds were Blue Tits. Other birds ringed today were, 103 Goldcrest, 21 Great Tit, 7 Chiffchaff, 6 Robin, 3 Chaffinch, 3
Siskin, 2 Wren, 2 Blackbird, 2 Song Thrush and singles of Sparrowhawk,
House Sparrow, Tree Sparrow, Brambling, Redpoll and Bullfinch.
