A 'brown' Merlin was in the dunes near the Boatyard on Tuesday with a few Pipits in the fields. There were Divers offshore from the Borth toilet seating area, near the strung out Scoters. Otherwise much as previously reported; the goldie flock is nothing like the size that we were seeing a few years ago but Red tells me that more are frequenting the wader fields up near Ynys Hir. Whilst we were on the phone this morning a Brambling turned up on his Cwmystwyth feeder!
