Oxwich Marsh

Jack snipe ringed this morning (photo by Charlie Sargent below of bird squatting on release).  30-40 common snipe present.

20 redwing also ringed there.  Crest numbers lower than a week or so ago, but 11 goldcrest caught and ringed, taking the total to almost 120 individuals in the past two weeks.

Lesser redpoll present in small numbers (groups of 1-3) around the marsh, and small flocks of siskin also around.
