Tresinwen & Strumble (19 May 13)

14 Whimbrel still present at the head early morning but then flushed by Peregrine and seemed to move on.

Sparrowhawk hunting at head.  Thousands of hirundines and Swifts around today but thorough searching could not find anything out of the ordinary with them.  Hopefully managed to get some Swift pics - will post later this week once I have had time to sort them out.

Cuckoo has found its voice again - still over by the mountain somewhere.  A couple of cracking Bullfinches feeding on daisies on the garden.  Lesser Redpoll have been moving overhead all day - maybe up to 30 different "fly-overs" so not sure how many different individuals.  Still a lot of Goldfinch about and 2 Lesser Whitethroat on territory.
