Kenfig Saltmarsh and Crymlyn Burrows (3/8/13)

The Kenfig saltmarsh looked perfect for waders yesterday, but none could be found. A Little Egret there of note. In the Reedbed pools nearby 88 Mallards were present. The marginal scrub near the footbridge held a loose mixed-flock of Stonechat (8) and Reed Buntings (13)

The pools on Morfa Tip held a Little Grebe and a Dunlin.

Crymlyn Burrows was still holding good numbers of waders. Ringed Plover (198), Knot (4), Sandering (327) and Dunlin (55). No terns in the bay but a mixed flock of gulls included Black-headed Gull (15), Mediterranean Gull (8) and Kittiwake (6)
