Info Post
A small fall of Willow Warblers and Chiffchaffs with a few Blackaps, a couple of Grasshopper Warblers, Redpoll sp, 2 White Wagtails and 60-70 Wheatears in the area. A female Pied Fly was in the hedge running along the path from the old Whitesands Bay Hotel to Whitesands. Then a Hoopoe out on the head which was seen in flight three times. It was very flighty and we looked for it from a vantage point so it wasn't 'pushed ' at all. New in? Last seen dropping down to the mouth of Porthmelgan (Bocca) Valley but lost (lots of walkers/geologists present). A male Ring Ouzel on the north side of the withies as we walked up the valley looking for the Hoopoe.
At Strumble, few warblers, much quieter overall but a dozen Wheatears and 2 or more White Wagtails in a newly-ploughed field at Tresinwen.
At Sealyham, a Green Sandpiper still and a s well as the usual Pergrines, one over Haverfordwest
