I stopped near Llangynfelyn church today as there seemed to be a lot of bird activity in a field near it. There was a good selection of species probing and prodding for grubs and earthworms there were lots of redwing, fieldfare, starling, song/mistle thrush, snipe (5), woodcock, curlew (7), lapwing and black headed gull. These fields were not as frozen as those nearer Ynyslas. I stopped by the Leri bridge and could see a male hen harrier hunting over the salt marsh on the estuary.
Like many correspondents on the blog I have seen a fair share of snipe and woodcock this last couple of weeks. What a winter! Anyone seen any bramblings this year?
