Pond yr Oerfa

Five whooper swans flew over Pond yr Oerfa this morning at about 8o'clock,
heading towards Ystumtuen. They are the first I have seen this year.
On the lake were one little grebe, two herons and five small ducks which were,
I think, teal- they were hard to see in the reeds but I hope to get better
views later.
Also seen on and off for the past week or so in the area was a kestrel. I have
seen it flying by the windmills and over my garden by the Pond yr Oerfa.
