Some more good terns..

A morning free from teaching the youth of Cardiff how not to crash a car gave me the opportunity to seek out some Autumn migrants. Goldcliff, with 9 Curlew Sands, and 9 Little Stints, was tempting, but I'd recently seen both species when watching the Semi-P. A report of 3 Black and 1 Arctic Tern at Eglwys Nunydd proved more tempting, and sure enough these 4 birds were easily found near the entrance to the reservoir. I left my camera at home, and regretted it, as both species came very close to me. An adult Med Gull was amongst the Black Headed, and at least 3 Common Sands were around. Not quite as exciting as the Picos last week, but a pleasant interlude....
