We had a session at Jan's on Thursday morning and although we only caught half the number of a fortnight ago it was still a good morning. In contrast to last session it was mild and birds were not very interested in feeding. We caught 31 birds of 5 species with all but 3 being new. New birds were - 20 Silvereye, 5 House Sparrows, 2 Greenfinch and a Bellbird. The recaps were 1 each of Silvereye, House Sparrow and Dunnock. All were banded at this site 2 weeks ago. We hope to get some movement between Jan's and the Quarry but we might have to wait a while.
