Winds overland in France and England light but fresher over the open sea reaching force 4 or 5 . Temperatures will reach a maximum of 16 C. No rain showers have been identified anywhere in the south of England or the channel at this time. (11:30 am)

"Firstly sorry for the delay with this news but the website was down this morning and I've spent the last two hours with customer support trying to resolve the problem.
Any way the good news the birds were liberated at 0630hrs in clear blue skies and no wind - please do not forget to verify your first bird and ignore any request for a wing stamp as the birds were not wing stamped - good luck to you all."
