Ynyslas this morning

I was at Ynyslas for the high tide this morning. There were very large numbers of Dunlin and Ringed Plover on the pebbles close to the point, I guesstimate 2,000+ but that's more of a "guess" than an "es"!
A dozen or so Gannets could be seen plunging into the sea and way out on the horizon it was just possible to make out manxies scurrying about.
As I drove along the track beside the Leri boatyard a Peregrine circled above and I noticed 3 or 4 Wheatears and a couple of striking Linets close to the track.
