cors caron hen harriers

Friday 14th: ringtail over bog.
Saturday 14th: male hunting rough bits of pasture on the eastern escarpment.

Having heard an early cuckoo this year I'm disappointed that the usual arrival dates for redstart and pied fly in our garden have been passed. Yesterday in Cwmere there were no sightings of redstarts in a valley usually well populated. My researches on the web reveal some awful weather in the western Med so perhaps they are being held up.
