Yesterday a neighbour of Chris Bird's, up at Trefenter, found a dead Water Rail on the garden path.
Today, around Ponterwyd by the road to Ystumtuen and the Pendam mountain road, masses of Fieldfares and a couple of Redwings.
Over 200 Red Kites at the Nant yr Arian feeding site this afternoon, plus the usual fly-over Crossbills.
