This afternoon, two brief views of a bird as it flew away from me – 90% sure it was a Black Redstart, dark back, red tail, but I got no view of the front of the bird.
It was initially seen on the upper path that runs from Bendrick Drive to Pobbles, just before the gorse ends and the path skims the edge of the golf course (google maps gives me 51.571121, -4.100496).

I saw a female Black Redstart on Pennard Cliffs above Three Cliffs Bay a few years ago.
