Pwll Waun Cynon NR

My first visit here for the GBC Willow Tit survey [in fact first time ever]. SAdly no Willow Tit this time. Only tits seen were 3 Coal Tit. The small lake had 2 pairs of Mallard with 9 and 5 ducklings, 1 ad Little Grebe, 2 Coot, a pair of Teal asleep at the edge. Passerines comprised, inter alia, 4 singing Blackcap, 6+ Blackbirds, pr of Dunnock displaying and another carrying food, and singing Whitethroat. Leps comprised Orange Tip Small Tort and Speckled Wood. An interesting little reserve tucked away by the railway line.

    Willow tits regularly calling every winter/spring at Tirfounder, a mile north up until Jan 2016, then all dissapeared, no trace since. New Cetti resident since 7th May, possible nest.
