The weather stayed fine as 12 of us set off after a quick look at the sea, where a few distant manxies and a Med Gull passed by. After a short distance the calls of Chough had us looking through a flock of corvids on Pendinas, where a fox showed well against the skyline.
Wheatear added before we turned inland along the river to Tan y Castell, enjoying a Dipper along the way, along with a Goosander. A few House Martins and Swallows moved through.
Then it was back to the coast past Tanybwlch Hall. Very little offshore apart from a few Gannets, then we stopped at the ditch for a good look. Highlights here were at least one White Wagtail among the Pieds and a juv/1st w Whinchat.
