GOOD DAY OUT!

On our way to Cardigan, Meurig, Bob and I called in at New Quay where we enjoyed some sea-watching with Andy James. Being the one calm day of early September it was not as exciting as on previous days but a good view of a Great Northern Diver rewarded our efforts.
E.L. Jones, the Printing firm at Cardigan have done an excellent job on the 2010 Report photographs and having had all the words, they are now ready to print and the Report should be out fairly soon. (See below.)
The Teifi estuary then kept us occupied and amongst a good variety of waders were 8 Black-tailed Godwits, 3 Knot, 15 Sanderling, a Whimbrel, Common Sandpiper and Turnstone and 72 Curlew. 46 Barnacle Geese were present before flying back to their assumed home on Cardigan Island and, once again from Jewsons there was a Kingfisher.
