Red-throated Diver at Borth

My first of the autumn, still in summer plumage.
At Ynyslas ca70 Swallows and a few House Martins were sweeping back and forth across the beach, picking up flies from the sand, and often resting on the ground for brief periods.
48 Sandwich Terns around the posts.
I could only find a few of Chris's Stonechats near the boatyard, but there were large numbers of Meadow Pipits and several hundred Starlings in the fields.
Large numbers of Swallows and House Martins also feeding over the fields, certainly 100 plus.
