A round up of sightings received by e mail -
From Barry Potter:- Pembroke River - Just a quick hour this morning (26 December)before I resume family duties, lots of wildfowl on the top of the tide, including wigeon, mallard, teal, 3 tufties, 1 gadwall, a few mute swan, 6 great crested grebe and suprisingly 17 coot on jacobs pill below pennar. Plenty of thrushes mainly song with the occasional redwing but no fieldfare. Waders included dunlin , oystercatcher, redshank, curlew, lapwing, and a single greenshank. seasons greetings to all
From Hugh Wood:- 24th Dec. - 100+ Snipe on cliff top between Stackpole Quay and Stackpole Head and 7 Woodcock (4 on cliff top, 3 in nearby woods). Bosherston Lilyponds: about equal (big) numbers of Blackbird, Song Thrush and Redwing.
26th Dec. Black Redstart at 16.00 in middle of estate at Gwilliam Court, Monkton, near Pembroke.
From John McIntyre:- Plenty of Dunlin feeding in the harbour this morning (c120) with Oystercatcher, Redshank and Shelduck on the Spit, and a Snipe on the track by the wooden bench. This Curlew pictured seemed oblivious to anything that was going on - over indulgence Christmas Day maybe!!
