Monday 16 July 2012

It was another very quiet day, particularly as it rained for the best part of the morning and afternoon. Waders were, however, in decent figures at high tide, with the totals of the more noteworthy species amounting to: a juvenile Ringed Plover, three Sanderlings, three Dunlins, a Whimbrel, four Redshanks, two Common Sandpipers and four Turnstones. Another migrant Willow Warbler in Plas Withy was the only new passerine inland.

 A couple of juvenile Peregrine Falcons spent much of the afternoon harassing the Choughs above Cristin, although were not seen to actually harm any.
