Rheidol swans and a feeding barn owl

The return of the resident mute swans up stream with their 4 offspring greeted us this morning with one of the adults making a grand landing on what was a fast body of thawing snow.After a lazy stop over on the bank and a not so lazy family altercation the pecking order was sorted and they left to go back down stream.
We continue to look out for the barn owl that was seen three days before Christmas hunting along and infront of the riverside in the hope that we will catch another glimse of what has to be one of the most remarkable sights this year.With that in mind may I wish all contributers and posters very best wishes for a successful birdwatching in 2011.
