Ynys-hir and the Clettwr

Tony Allenby and I were at Ynys-hir on Wednesday morning, not sure if our visits overlapped Matt.....We saw a marvelous male Hen Harrier on the opposite side of the estuary from Domen Las Hide and as we walked back across the field towards Marian Mawr we saw it again. This time it "counted" though because it was on our side of the Dyfi! Delighted to see Barnacle Geese and Goldeneye too. Yesterday I watched a pair of Dippers at the Clettwr, I got very close. If one moves very slowly and quietly they don't seem to mind being watched at all.
