'A weekend in the valley'.........

I decided last weekend that I would bird locally with a visit to Darren Woods, Llangynwyd on Saturday where I found four singing male Wood Warblers holding territories and amongst other a pair of Coal Tits tending a nest in an old moss covered stone wall.
It's great to see Wood Warblers back in good numbers the species having disappeared from the wood for a several years due to poor woodland management.
On Sunday morning I visited Maesteg golf course hoping for a Cuckoo, one was heard but not seen, as compensation a Grasshopper Warbler showed nicely in brambles adjacent the 17th tee.
Here are some images from the weekend...…..
