In an outstanding spring for this species there were three wood sandpipers on the pools visible from the Ynys Feurig hide at RSPB Ynys-hir this morning (Monday). Found by Mark Carter at 0730 they were still present at 1000. Three together is a record count for this species in Ceredigion and there has never been a better spring passage ever in the county. If you want to connect with this species then I recommend a trip to the Ynys Feurig hide before 0900 hrs hours. They tend to move on fast in Spring so don’t delay if you want to add it to your year list. Autumn can be hit and miss?
