An adult Mediterranean Gull (acquiring its summer hood) was an unusual inland record at Manor Farm. Across the road at Pwll-y-waun was a female Goosander. There were 24 Sanderling at Sandy Bay, but no sign of any white-winged gulls from there along the seafront up to Lock’s Common. Rest Bay car park (still £1 to park all day) and the playing fields were again very good for gulls with 7 Mediterranean Gull (1 ad sum, 5 ad w and a 2nd w bird), 26 Common Gull and 25 Black-headed Gull. The weedy fields to the north held about 35 Skylark. A mobile Turnstone flock max 24 birds seen also contained 2 Purple Sandpiper which settled down to feed on the rocks on the rising tide. The Wilderness Pool was relatively quiet with an adult Grey Heron, a pair of Pochard, 5 Shoveler plus an impressive flock of 59 Goldfinch frequenting the alders, later joined by 3 Mistle Thrush.
