20 birds were ringed in total:
Jack Snipe 6
Woodcock 1
Snipe 6
Lapwing 4
Green Sand 1
Teal 2
A mid evening meal of fish and chips was required to warm everyone up, although we're not sure if it helped Shaun much!
This site is certainly an important wintering area for Jack Snipe, with 7 already ringed here this winter.
