When the mist finally cleared it was a beautiful day at RSPB Ynys-hir and, in the four hours I was there I saw over 70 bird species. Highlights were 3 different stock doves calling, an avocet on the river which then flew onto the Ynys Feurig pool, a merlin, a male and ringtail hen harrier, a fem/imm marsh harrier, 4 bar-tailed godwits and 2 green sandpipers and a kingfisher perched in front of the Domen las hide for the 15 minutes I was in the hide. Shame I didn't have a camera.
