Sunday 13-11 with a 6 metre net opened from 7.30-14.30:
Blackbird (Merel) 4 -
Blue Tit (Pimpelmees) 3 - 1
Great Tit (Koolmees) 5 - 1
House Sparrow (Huismus) 1 -
Total 15 birds
Yesterday, after I got home from work at the Albert Heijn at 12.00 I opened my net as well. It was misty the entire day so the birds weren't really able to see the mistnet which resulted in good catches still in the afternoon.
Thursday 17-11 with a 6 metre net open from 12.00 - 17.15
Blackbird (Merel) 1 -
Blue Tit (Pimpelmees) 6 - 1 I was surprised by these good numbers of 'new' Blue Tits!
Great Tit (Koolmees) 3 -
House Sparrow (Huismus) 2 -
Total 13 birds
The Blackbird was a bit of a weird looking 1cy male, with some white feathers in the throat. There were some recent messages on the Ringersnet (the Dutch mailgroup of ringers) about dark looking 1cy females that some ringers had ringed recently. With that in mind I looked at this bird, but it still looks like a male to me (the black start for instance). Pictures below:
An example of a 1cy Blue Tit (male).
This morning there were four Greenfinches present, feeding on sunflowers seeds, hopefully I will catch some next time!
I still wanted to give a complete list of species banded/ringed during my two month lasting stay at Powdermill. Be prepared!!
