Ynyslas this afternoon and a Hummingbird Hawk-moth
A walk around Ynyslas and the Leri this afternoon 4 Velvet Scoters, 1 Red-throated Diver, 5 Wigeon and 4 Shags on the sea. 6 Stonechats, a Water Rail, a Cetti's Warbler and c.10 Redshank were along the Leri. A male Merlin and a female Sparrowhawk were around Ynys Tachwedd. As I came home from uni yesterday afternoon I found a Hummingbird Hawk-moth buzzing around the daffodils in the front garden, I've been told it's the earliest record of this species in Ceredigion.
