light vis mig of Swallows and Mipits over the reserve and the coast path to the west this morning. In the fields to the west [Rowland’s Well fields], around 50 mipits were feeding, tog with 10 or so Pied Wags and 20 Linnet. Coffee by the Captain’s Wife pub and there were 32 Oycs at roost on Sully Island at high tide. 2 Chiffchaff by the Lavernock sea watch point and a Heron was at the small pond on the reserve.
PS Lol Middleton was pretty sure he saw a juv Turtle Dove on the road, together with a Wood Pigeon and a Collared Dove, however he was driving and it flew off. Worth keeping a lookout for tho’ if you are there.
Glamorgan Bird Club 
Thanks John. This was a bizarre sighting. I was just driving home after a few hours out on the point, had just passed the Marconi club and was close to the gated entrance to the reserve. There were three “pigeons” in the middle of the road, so I stopped about 10 yards before them. The left bird was a Collared dove, and the right bird a Woodpigeon and I had initially expected the middle bird to be a juv Collared dove.It was about 2/3rds the size of the Coll Dove, but with checkered back and wing feathers. Dull rufous tones, with black – very strongly marked. No neck markings and a distinctive “sunken” looking eye. Just like a dull Turtle dove. All this happened within about 10 seconds before a car came up behind me and tooted his horn a flushed them. I went back later and spent an hour or so looking – relocated a few collared doves, but that is all. Lets see what tomorrow brings.
