As expected fairly quiet but still good birding. 12 little
egret, 5 goosander, 30 Herring gull, 2 GBBG. 2 curlew were the only noteworthy
waders, apart from 2 prs of redshank with chicks mobbing a red kite.
Over Foel fawr there’s been a regular stream of wood pigeons
and corvids on the bilberry areas, but 32 wood pigeon and 10 raven yesterday
afternoon was unusual. A sparrowhawk carrying food has been a regular sighting
almost daily.
