I led a GBC field trip to the above yesterday, 11th May. The Cwm had Tree Pipits, Redstart and other common species but sadly no Pied Flys or Wood Warbler that we have had there before. By the road above the Cwm as we picniced a Little Ringed Plover dropped in to feed on the grass – bit of a surprise although they do occur at Trefil, over the other side of the hill. A male Wheatear also made an appearance but we failed to fnd 2 Cuckoos seen earlier. At Llangorse the were very vocal feral Barnacle Geese, a Comomon Sandpiper seen briefly but best of all a nest bulding Reed Bunting gave some good photo opportunities 48 Species were logged by the 10 participants.
