An enjoyable few hours at Ynyshir included, in the order seen or heard, blackcap, the great white egret on the saltings, spaarowhawk, four redstarts, a female pied flycatcher, tree pipit, a grasshopper warbler heard in front of the Breakwater hide , osprey on the far bank and two white wagtails at the east end of the Breakwater fields. Unusually, a nuthatch pecked the ground. Nesting little egrets made what sounded to me like bubbling sounds, which Collins describes as gargling.
Last night, about 50 house martins and a swallow over the William Condry reserve and a Belgian couple photographing a 'hawkmoth with eyes'.
