Dartford Warbler at Kynance.

Went out yesterday hoping for some migrants, in particular Ring Ouzel. No luck, not even the over-winter at Gothian Sands. To-day however was a different story, no Ring Ouzel but we did get a Dartford Warbler at Kynance. Also saw a Hobby and Sparrowhawk at Kynance, along with Wheatear and Stonechats.

Is this Lenin or Francis Drake watching over a Stonechat? Spooky

Garden Birds




Well, we went out over the weekend and saw very little, usual stuff really except for one which was too far away to get a decent photo and that was a Hen Harrier at Nanquidno.
Went to Gothian Sands looking for the Ring Ouzel, no joy, just Pintail and Scaup and the resident Buzzard looking for his next meal, talking of which we did see a Carrion Crow with a Frog, of course Duncan had to go one better with the Coot at Stithians on Sunday.
These shots were taken while out and about and also around the garden, nothing very spectacular. we very often get Squirrels in our Cherry tree and we quite like them, (couldn't eat a whole one).
