Harrogate MG Club

Monday, April 12th 2010

The sunny weather was enjoyed by many different groups at Foxglove today. Members of the Harrogate MG club travelled across country for a guided walk of the reserve.

The local RSPB York group also enjoyed walking around the site, spotting as many birds as they could.

Both groups took an interest in the bird ringing which produced in excess of 150 birds including several newly arrived Willow Warblers, some Lesser Redpoll and this male Redstart found during the final net round.
