Gannets

Early this morning I was by the blockhouse at Ynyslas watching a huge feeding frenzy off and extending beyond the mouth of the Dyfi estuary. Along with the gulls and countless Manx Shearwaters were 270 Gannets. After a long while the frenzy became subdued and many of the Gannets and Manxies began to fly south, several just beyond the breaking waves. It was a wonderful hour or so.
Later at the Clettwr, a Common Sandpiper and then rain stopped play.
