Marsh Harrier near Borth

 I saw a male marsh harrier over the southern edges of Cors Fochno today, from near the Wales Coast Path near Pantydwn Farm.

From nearly the same place on Friday I saw two cuckoos. Initially I heard one in the distance, then closer and getting closer until two birds flew almost overhead, the male calling as he flew, the other in close attendance. I found it quite thrilling.
