Article of July 25, 2012 : Finally the good weather! It only needs...

…birds!
Since this weekend we have a nice weather on the station. But, it is not enough to make birds come and ringing sessions are quiet.
Migration is far to be in full swing and many local birds still nest (brood patches and cloacal protuberance well marked). However we captured these last days some Icterine Warbler (4), one Reed Warbler, one Great Spotted Woodpecker (only one captured last year ...), and a trio of Crested Tits.

Great Spotted Woodpecker, juvenile (Dendrocopos major).

Hey yes, there is no red but it is good a Robin!

Crested Tit (Lophophanes cristatus).

Nightingale, juvenile (Luscinia megarhynchos).

We also meet other occupants  in the dune!
Toad (Bufo calamita).
