Glandyfi this morning

 A brief stop last night: highlight 9 whimbrel, 3 goosander, and a single snipe on the Meirionnydd side. 

 Various updates Wood warblers present in good numbers on NRW land in Cwm Einion with 8 singing males within 3 kms of Furnace yesterday, mainly in broadleaves but a few in conifers.  We've at last got pied flycatcher back nesting by the house, and this year a pair of garden warblers, and, a first, a pair of house sparrows in the garage. No swallows yet  though maybe not surprising as at least one of  last years adults was killed by a barn owl. This was unfortunate as it was the only "safe" nest site which marauding jays could not access. Good also this year is a pair of greenfinches, and dippers back as a breeding bird,  just downstream of the house. Pied wagtails nesting in the firewood pile will mean a delay in wood processing this year! An interesting record from Alan Rogers (Rogers and Taylor, Bow St) were 6 golden plover he saw on Dysgwylfa Fawr on 21st April.
