Swifts

 We had five swifts swooping and screeching around at the back of our house in Eglwys Fach at 9:45 on Sunday morning. They made my day.

Ospreys

 One, probably two, ospreys at an upland site in the north on Friday.  One flew very strongly towards the NW, heading for the Dyfi area. It seemed difficult to believe that it could have been back so quickly to be seen there again so soon.

Aberystwyth prom.

 Four Turnstones on the outer rocks at Castle Point this morning were joined by a Sanderling; unusual here in spring.  Still five Purple Sandpipers down by the harbour.

Ynyslas

A very calm sea off the brick house with lots of manxies, kittiwakes, three sandwich terns and a very nice summer plumaged great northern diver around 100 metres offshore. 

At Ynyslas itself there were two grey plovers, three sanderling, 39 whimbrel, a common tern, nine wheatear and around 50 dunlin and ringed plover.
