Marloes Mere / Gann

A good number of hirundines at Marloes Mere late afternoon (150+), a roughly even mix of House Martins & Swallows with a handful of Sand Martins and a lone Swift. A pair of Tufties, a Shoveler but not a lot else.

Gann: 16 Ringed Plover, 2 Dunlin, 2 Whimbrel, a Little Egret (my first here for a while), 2 Grey Herons but sadly no Spoonbills!

With a Bee-eater, Red-rumped Swallow, Melodious Warbler & Golden Oriole in West Cornwall (& a Honey Buzzard in Wexford) today, there must be some hope, despite the south-westerly airflow!
