The male Garganey showed well on and off throughout the day from the Britton hide. The curved wing feathers are not fully-developed, so it may be an immature bird. It appeared very nervous, always raising its head and looking around if any other species of bird called in the area.
Also on the Mere: male Shoveller, Dabchick with 2 chicks, Coot with 3 chicks, 3 displaying male Reed Buntings, Sedge and Reed Warblers.
Deer Park: the last 2 evenings have seen good gatherings of Choughs: 22 in one flock last night, 17 tonight. The Stonechats have fledged their first broods (2 in Martin's Haven valley) and frequent visits by groups of House Martins (max 10+) in the valley along with the usual Swallows. Good views of Manxies to the North over St Bride's Bay most evenings.
Garganey still at Marloes Mere
