Field Trip Sunday 18th

Fifteen people were brave/silly enough to turn out for the walk at Llanon on
Sunday. One or two didn't finish the course but I think we all enjoyed it and
thought that it was worthwhile.

The birds that I recorded were fulmar, manx shearwater, cormorant, mallard,
buzzard, sparrow hawk, kestrel, curlew, black-headed gull, mediterranean
gull,feral pigeon, wood pigeon, skylark, house martin, rock pipit, grey
wagtail, crow, house sparrow, and greenfinch. Star bird of the day was a
Sabines gull which put in an appearance toward the end of the walk and was
quickly spotted by Liz Snell.

Some of the group were motivated enough to move on to Llanrhystud and help
Aline with the beach clean- dedication indeed!
