This morning there was a flock of Black headed Gulls working
the fields near my house. The scope showed that several Meds were also present
with at least 4 developing hoods.
Older sightings include a Chiffchaff 2nd week of
Feb and a male Blackcap feeding an a fatball on the fourth week of Feb ( Kendall
Evans ,New Road New Quay ).
I have had a pair of Greenfinch in the garden. On the
6th of March at Bird’s Rock a Gannet made a close pass. Auks were
present again that day. In the distance a male Kestrel (probably the resident
bird) was doing a spectacular display flight with feigning dives, presumably on
the female that I could not see from my location.
