Ceredigion Birding Group Field Trip

There was another good turn-out for the Ceredigion Birding Group Field Trip this morning, 13 of us met at Ynys-hir and made our way to the Breakwater Hide in quite blustery conditions. The weather gradually improved though and in the end it was very pleasant. Amongst the birds seen were Wigeon, Shoveler, Pintail, Pochard (6), Tufted Duck, Barnacle Geese (c300), Bar-tailed Godwit, Snipe and a lone Kestrel. As Gary and I made our way back to the visitor centre we heard but didn't see a Water Rail.
