Ynys-hir

Great views of raptors from Ynys Feurig mid morning today. In a memorable few minutes I had ring tailed hen harrier, merlin and peregrine. The harrier was present for 20 minutes and I last saw it flushing a snipe from Covert Coch, the raised bog.
Impressive teal flock on the main pool in front of the hide with 330 teal then joined by a further 140 which had just been disturbed by the shooting at the back of Penrhyn gerwin. Other duck included 12 shoveler.
