In sunny but cold conditions there were 15 participants on today’s GBC monthly walk at Kenfig NNR. In total, forty nine species were seen or heard. The highlights included a male Marsh Harrier which appeared late morning and which gave excellent views from the South Pool hide, Scaup, Goldeneye, Lapwing, Sparrowhawk and Greylag Geese. Many thanks to Strinda Davies for leading the walk.
