Strong northerlies continue to persist with migration being rather slow. A Skylark was a surprise on the South End with a Cuckoo in the Wetlands, a Siskin over Cristin, a Swift over Pen Cristin, two Collared Doves and a Feral Pigeon on the Mountain, a total of three Spotted Flycatchers and a Swift north. A late evening gathering saw 15 House Martins and six Swallows were sheltering behind Pen Cristin.
During the afternoon a short trip to Pen Cristin saw two more broods of Shags ringed alongside another adult. Afterwards staff helped Gareth get the sheep off the mountain for a check up.
