Info Post
Some records from this pm's hunt;
A ring-tail Hen harrier hunting along the commons between Ivor's Pond & Penberry.

Like Derek, suprised to find 48 Canada's still at Penberry, also 12 Wigeon, 1 Shoveler(f).
Teal, generally pairs, present on every pool looked at inc. on Tretio. Trefeiddan looks excellent for aquatic-loving migrants! 4 large gull flocks following ploughs, but no interesting gulls found. Nothing of note across farmland to Heathfield, where the highlights c100 Redwings & Nuthatch paired & singing.

Teifi;
High tide tonight, 2 Sanderling, 3 Ringed Plover, 7 Dunlin, 1 Turnstone, the only small waders found roosting. Wigeon, 32 found & only 23 Curlew.
A Kestrel hovering above the railings.

Pembroke Upper Mill Pond;
Visited here y'day at low tide, birds feeding on Pembroke River so quiet. Counts from John H. tonight at H.T., so roosting on the pond. 50 Black-tail Godwits, 13 Greenshank, 10 Redshank. Last week Greenshank peak count 22.!
