Info Post
An excellent days birding, Starting off in Tycanol Wood where I found 4 male Redstarts, numerous Willow Warblers, Chiffchaffs, Blackcaps, Nuthatch'es and a Treecreeper. Then walked through Carnedd Meibion Owen back to the car seeing on the way 9 Wheatears and a pair of Stonechat. On to Banc Llwydlos (an area on the Preseli's) where I seen 6 Wheatears and another pair of Stonechat. A drive through Cwm Morvil found a female Kestrel sitting on top of one of Paddy's nesting boxes, plenty of Meadow Pipits plus another pair of Stonechat. The last stop of the day was Mynydd Craig-Lwydd (Puncheston area); First birds sighted were a pair of Stonechat, followed by 12 Wheatears and then a fantastic male Ring Ouzel sitting on the stone wall (grid ref SM000324), which promptly flew off into the nearest conifer when it seen me! Further down the slope a Tree Pipit was found and a Gropper reeling in a Rhododendron bush.
