Oxwich & Whiteford

A kittiwake on Oxwich Pond this morning (assumedly still recovering after the stormy weather), along with at least 10 shoveler (an increase since Jan). No decent count of other waterfowl as they were hiding in the margins.
Quick trip around Whiteford: peregrine hunting the creeks on Cwm Ivy Marsh, counts of 1380 golden plover, 1430 lapwing (both The Groose), 317 dunlin, and 25 eider (both Berges Island). Another 3 kitts and a razorbill all looking miserable off Burges Island.
Frog spawn in the fields opposite the first area of plantation was my first of the year.
