Great Grey Shrike & Divers at Llys-y-fran Resr.

Llys-y-fran Resr. 23/01/2008;-

Pacific Diver generally seen from hide area but mobile; has been seen this am from the hide with the Black-Throated Diver -- also mobile around the resr.

Worth the effort regardless of weather to see the two.!

Black-Necked Grebe generally near the fish tanks, can be v. close.

Last but not least, the Great Grey Shrike, we watched the shrike in the lakeside trees as you walk up the inlet on the way to the hide. This bird flies across the cyclepath & perches either side, fairly close to observers!
It has also been seen this am by the boatshed, so it probably should be looked for as you walk from the car-park to the inlet & up the inlet.
