One Hundred and Seventy!!!!

Okay, not a big total, and still behind Tim's maximum posted a month or two ago, but nevertheless I got my first year tick since May! The two ospreys at Llanrhidian Marsh performed well eating a large fish each out on the posts. A first for both Alec and Non too! There must have been avery high tide today as the road was flooded at Crofty when I arrived, but had cleared when I left. Never seen that before.

Rosie's 1st twitch

A very mediocre picture of a stunning bird. Mr Slocombe will be along soon to put this effort to shame...

Some Colour

This garden tiger in this morning's catch, brightened up another dull weekend. Roll on autumn passage!

One Hundred and Eighty!!!!!

That's the number of species of bird seen by me in 2007 up to Rosie's birth on 9th June....... 29 species of butterfly ........ 8 species of dragon/damselflies...... Guess what: those totals are still the same now......

Rosie goes birding

We managed a short walk from on 28th June from Coed Llwyn-celyn, between Lisvane and Rudry. However, her birding skills didn't help us find anything of note, the highlight being a male Blackcap.
