Lovely at the ynys feurig hide at RSPB Ynyshir again yesterday afternoon. Lots of displaying lapwings and redshank with over 20 of the latter
around the pools and ditches. Two male ruff there, one with a distinct white
collar, an immature male marsh harrier flustered everything, and a dozen sand
martins flew through. A great egret below the car-park rounded off a nice couple
of hours birding
