Aerial activity was very evident today, a Goshawk joining a flock of 26 Ravens tumbling about in a thermal providing two unusual sightings for this site. Buzzards were also evident in the sky along with ant-eating gulls, mostly Black-heads, 479 being counted in this section of the Burry. Little Egrets appear to have increased suddenly, 95 being visible from the bridge alone. Yesterday evening one of the two juvenile Marsh Harriers seen last week was still busy hunting over the saltmarsh (photo here) at Llanrhidian, where counts have included 158 Teal & 117 Greylags. However, it is Penclacwydd that is providing the best wader watching at present, with counts when we were there yesterday including Black-tailed Godwit 584, Knot 537, Greenshank 48, Redshank 213 and Spot-shank 2, though I know Wendell has had bigger counts for most species.
