brambling etc

Brambling, female, with chaffinches at our feeding station.
2 little egrets and a ringtail harrier over the central bog -wouldn't it be good if a pair took up residence with the herons!
Re Starling flocks: a friend recently saw a massive flock above the Rheidol over the A4120. A non-birder, he said it was amazing 'just like on the telly'; a black swarm making patterns in the sky.

Green sand yesterday late afternoon flew onto our pond, calling.
