Lisvane: here at north Cardiff’s premier black-necked grebe viewing facility, the juvenile BNG (i.e. the 3rd bird to appear) was back on display this morning near the car park, before moving off along the west bank. A common sandpiper was also present.

Llanishen: this evening, at least 14 little grebes of various ages, including a new tiny chick (perhaps the 4th brood to have hatched here this year). Also, 1 adult GC grebe still feeding the single juv, 20 Canadas, 3 moorhens, 2 pochard, 8 tufties, 8 coots, 6 BH gulls, 1 mallard and 2 juv herons flew in -hotly pursued by the local corvids!
