An amazing 25 GBC members enjoyed a trip to Ogmore today, Sun 26 Feb, on a sunny but cold day. Despite ‘dipping’ on Purple Sandpipers along the foreshore rocks [which were fully occupied by anglers] we totted up 42 species, during an outing which included a walk up the estuary as far as just short of the water treatment works bridge. Highlights included a group of 9 Brent Geese offshore of the rivermouth, 3 Goldeneye, 4 Goosander, Wigeon, Teal, Gadwall, a Common Sandpiper and others to make up a total of 42 species. Somde other examples, – a couple of folk saw Chough, and we had just 2 Turnstone and an Oyc on the foreshore rocks, Redshank, Grey Wagtail, Stonechat ….. A few photos I grabbed are below.
