Coed Dolgoed Strata Florida aka Coed Y Bont

Coed y Bont community woodland has been the venue for a previous birdwalk and is the subject of some intensive bird surveying. The mosaic of habitats including Protected Ancient Woodland make it well worth visiting when it re-opens to the public after the creation of paths and ponds through the old clear fell area at the end of April.
There will be a bird walk to celebrate this during April so watch this space!
This morning there were the following species in just one small tree: robin, treecreeper, blue,coal,long tailed and willow tit!  Lesser Redpolls, 5 chiffchaffs and a marsh tit singing,  courting red kites  and noisy great spots were also around.
Unfortunately I didn't have a drone to do an aerial shot but you get an impression.
