The Long-taield Duck was at the far [N] end of the barrage and made its way towards the sails. Moulting so now showing a fairly good tail spike, much whiter face and some pink on the bill. Hopefully it will stay long enough to show full drake plumage. The 7 Greater Scaup were at the extreme S end just past the fish run. Also a Cormorant in the bay trying to swallow a v large eel. Annoyed I didn’t take my camera as it was drizzling when we left home.

In Penarth Marina, the male Black Redstart was on roofs by the Plas Pamir parking area.
