Trapping so far on two days at the end of February and 7 days in March, but only with half the nets and no full trapping days with nets open from dawn. The only notable migrant movement so far was in strong southern winds on the 11th, when roughly 50 blackbirds and singles of Song Thrush and Eurasian Woodcock were noted in the trapping area.
