Ynyslas & Aber Sat.

Weatherman promised sun , so goodbye L'dod and  off to the sea! No such luck. Re 50+ Wigeon on the Leri oppo the beach car park and a Dabchick by the bridge over it. Odd I thought. Flock of re 150 Lapwings over . Strange carcase on beach to seaward of dunes: about 3 feet long with ribs and most of the meat pecked off. Couldn't work it out???
Back to Aber and 2 groups of Turnstones by pier dashing in and out as the ripples came in. Black Redstart a speck high  up on the Old College and finally 2 Purple Sands on the old stone pier, dodging the waves, as was I ! T

hey were a bit nimbler than me with a large lens!
