Divers and grebes

After finishing my section of the Dyfi WeBS count yesterday I had a quick look off Ynyslas turn car-park. Much better numbers of divers and grebes were off-shore with 36 great crested grebes and 85 red-throated divers close enough to identify with 100+ more distant white blobs probably divers. Later I at last managed to find a lapland bunting with 5 reed bunting south of Llanon along with a pink-footed goose on the stubble fields and 8 red-throated divers again just off-shore. A snow bunting was at Tanybwlch beach too which was a bonus.
