Porthcawl this morning

There were 213 Black-headed Gulls with 36 Herring Gull and 3 adult winter-plumaged  Mediterranean Gulls roosting at puddles in the Salt lake car park. There were 30 Turnstone, 1 Oystercatcher  and a Rock Pipit on lawns at Irongate Point with another adult Med Gull nearby. The Wilderness Pool held a Little Grebe (my first record for this site), 3 Cormorant, adult and juvenile Grey Herons, 3 pairs of Shoveler, 1 Pochard, 1 drake and 4 female Goosander and finally 20 Goldfinch feeding in the alder trees. Approximately 200 Black-headed Gull flew from puddles in Manor Farm over to Pwll-y-waun Pool.
