Otter and crossbills

An otter was frolicking about in the boardwalk pond at Cors Caron yesterday at midday;I haven't seen one for about a year but I gather Karen G saw one in the same place recently so there must be some fish... or was. Later a large(60+) flock of redpolls and siskins were working in the tops of birch trees.
Today up at the Arch in Hafod fantastic views of crossbills (about 20) and lots of vocal accompaniment.
Red Liford heard over-flying redwings at Cwmystwyth a few days ago and they have been seen in Pembs.
