GEDSER - 27th October

Just had time for a couple of hours with the nets before heading back to the UK for Jack and Laura’s wedding in York; it was a very promising looking morning with low cloud and light winds but I ended up not missing anything, managing to still be here for the best birds of the day which comprised an Eastern-type Lesser Whitethroat and a Long-eared Owl caught shortly after first light while a group of 20 Waxwings flew around the garden calling loudly.



A few pictures of the eastern Lesser Whitethroat - not really sure what it is, perhaps a halimodendri type, hopefully the feather samples taken will provide the answers.
