6 of us braved the dire weather forecast to take part on the Walk for Women on Sunday morning, meeting at Forage Farm cafe and farmshop, near Cowbridge. We managed to find 22 species between us before torrential rain made it sensible to turn back before halfway. Hot drinks and snacks in the outside yurt were very welcome! The highlights were – a Hobby, a constant stream of migrating Swallows with a Yellow Wagtail amongst them, several Mistle Thrush and Raven.

Full List- Woodpigeon, Dunnock, Blackbird, Carrion Crow,

Thanks for coming, hope you’ve dried out!
