When we went for our walk on the Foel yesterday, Lulu, Buster and me weren't able to get to our favourite bench for a while because a Peregrine was perched on rocks just a few feet from it. We stopped a couple of hundred yards away and watch it for a 10 minutes or so before it flew off. When we did get there I found the remains of some unfortunate prey species that the falcon had been eating. In the afternoon Buster and I went up the hill again and saw a probable Gosshawk, a Sparrowhawk, Red Kite, 4 Buzzards, Whinchat, Tree Pipit, Meadow Pipit, Willow Warbler, Stonechat, Whitethroat and Dunnock.
This morning we went to the turn car-park at Ynyslas. There were probably a couple of hundred Manx Shearwaters, c20 Gannet, 8 or 9 Guillemot and 5 Ringed Plover knocking about and unusually for that location, a Grey Wagtail.
