Black-tailed Godwits - Neyland


I had a nice surprise today when driving from Milford to Neyland along the coast road when I came across a line of waders along the shoreline just before Neyland Yacht Club. It turned out to be 68 Black-tailed Godwits and possibly a couple more where the sun was reflecting off the water. I have never seen that many before in Pembrokeshire, so I had to count them a couple of times. Alongside were 4 Knot and 4 Dunlin.
