Llyn Oerfa and elsewhere

Busy day at Llyn Oerfa.
Today the lake in front of our house at Ystumtuen holds eleven
goosanders (two male), two pairs of teal, four male mallards, one pair
of tufted ducks, and a heron.
Our walk on Saturday produced sightings of twenty+ turnstones and six
purple sandpipers by the pier in Aberystwyth and a pair of ravens and a
peregrine on constitution hill.
Yesterday we walked at Tanybwlch where there were at least six
stonechats, a singing chiffchaff and a pair of chough collecting nest
material.
