Highlights this morning were 2 adult Mediterranean Gulls on W. lake just starting to moult into breeding plumage – don’t often see 2 let alone 1. On E. lake by the bridge, was a female Scaup with some Tufted Ducks. Judging from my friend Annie’s response to my Whatsapp post, this was the female from Cardiff Bay, where it was apparently absent. Also on E. lake was a Common Gull, presuimably the one fiorm the other day. It was very distant unlike on 2nd.
In W. paddock there were around 20-30 Fieldfare and Redwing and the usual flock of c.20 Goldfinch with a few Chaffinch and 3 Greenfinch with them.
