Bits ‘n’ Bobs

In yesterday’s gale a juv Pom/Arctic Skua was off Port Eynon Point yesterday along with a trickle of Gannets, Kittiwakes and larger numbers of Guillemots. 15 Common Scoter were feeding off the point in stupid conditions! A scan of the estuary between Crofty and Loughor this morning failed to pick up strays in the aftermath of the storm, the only thing of real note being a colour-ringed Black-wit among the 285-strong flock.

    Glad you caught up with that Barry, I’m pretty sure I saw it or another like it yesterday just West of Dalton’s point in among at least 250 BlackTwit flock. All I saw was yellow and green and not the combination. What was also magnificent was a murmuration of several thousand Starling, I estimate up to 7,000 in a frenzied feeding mass across the marsh at Wernfrrwd early yesterday morning.
