Strumble Head

I spent a couple of hours at Strumble this morning and had 2 sandwich terns going north, red-throated diver going south and 4 whimbrel in total seen during my watch 2 of which delighted me by alighting on the rocks at sea level below the observation building. Again good numbers of hirundines mostly swallows a few sand martins and only one or two house martins.

Postscript:- 5pm 28th April single swift flying over Trefisheg, Strumble Head.
6.15pm 28th April- Kestrel hovering (foraging) over Gilfach Goch farmland Fishguard (map ref. SM 979373).
