Ynys-hir

John Davis and I drove north today hoping to do some birding at Black-Rock Sands and Harlech. But each time we got close to the sea we were shrouded in thick mist. So we ended up getting about an hours birding in back where we started at Ynys-hir.
Glose to Marion Mawr Hide we saw 1 female Peregrine, 3 Little Egret, 3 Goosander-1male 2 female and 1 female Goldeneye. On the water in front of the visitor centre we saw 3 Pintail-2 male 1 female and 1 male Shoveler plus several Teal and Malard.
