Stormy session

This morning started clear and sunny an ideal condition for a good morning's ringing. Alas after less than storms started to brew from the east and activities soon came to an end. Seeing the conditions about to change birds were quickly extracted and nets furled. Nevertheless not all was lost in that we were able to catch 58 birds of 17 species, so not too bad.
