Ogmore and Dunraven

54 species seen on the GBC trip with 20 participants today. 3-4 Purple Sands eventually seen on the foreshore rocks at Ogmore-by-Sea, and the Dartford Warbler showed briefly but well, a couple of times, in the gorse behind the toilet block at Dunraven. There were 7 Goldeneye at Portobello and a pair pf Goosander up towards the water treatment works bridge. Other wildfowl were Mallard, Teal, Wigeon [1 fem], Pintail [1 drake], Gadwall and Shelduck, the latter 4 near the river mouth.

3 of us stopped by at Ty’n-y-Caeau Farm on the way back East and had a couple of Yellowhammer on the hedgerow and a fly-over Redwing.
