After reaching a total of 101 different birds last year, I have decided to just record day counts from now on. It was becoming increasingly difficult to separate individuals especially amongst the juvenile/first-winter birds that change rapidly.
January
- Seven on January 6th (3 first-winter, 2 second-winter and 2 adults)
- Six on January 13th (2 adults, 1 fourth-winter, 2 third-winter and a first-winter)
- Three on January 27th (1 adult, 1 second-winter and 1 first-winter)
- One on January 28th (second-winter)
- Three on January 31st ( adult and two first-winters)
Total for January 25
February
- three on February 3rd (second-winter and 2 first-winters - one of the first-winters first seen on January 31st)
Total for February 2 (poor total due to illness and the IGM)
March
- three on March 14th (3 first-winters)
- three on March 21st (2 second-winters and a first-winter)
- five on March 24th (sub-adult, 1 third-winter, 3 first-winters)
- four on March 31st (1 second-winter and 3 first-winters)
Total for March 15
April
- one on April 1st (first-winter) also seen on March 31st
- one April 6th (first-winter)
- four on April 14th (three first-winters, I suspect two were hybrids, and a third-summer)
- one on April 18th (second-summer). German colour-ring X072
- one on April 21st (first-summer). German colour-ring X935
