Cemlyn area update

Driving to Carmel Head this morning I had a Whinchat in Llanfairynghornwy. Walking down to Ynys y Fydlyn there was a small movement off chaffinches with a few redpolls, skylarks and the odd siskin. The path to Carmel head is closed and the gate locked for the shooting season so we headed south instead. This produced a Peregrine, Hooded Crow and a calling Brambling.
Hen Felin produced nothing today but it's always worth a stop but the Little Owl was at the top of the hill calling lots as its house was being overtaken by Jackdaws!
Cemlyn produced, 2 Ruffs with the 150 strong Curlew flock, 9 Little Egrets, c.75 Wigeon, single Grey Plover, Golden Plover and a Barwit.
Otherwise I had 7 photogenic Barwits at high tide at Penrhos CP Car Park this evening and a whimbrel flew over my house calling on wednesday night.
