Pembroke -- today

Hi

Your Pembsbirds blogspot is ideal for a visitor with a couple of days in the area. Went looking for the Grey Phalarope yesterday (1st) but no joy. Thought you might be interested in this morning’s sightings of 1 Black-tailed Godwit and 1 Common Sandpiper in Pembroke. The castle pond is tidal just now and the sandpiper was up under the castle. The godwit was on the estuary side but close up to the footbridge, with a Little Egret. Lots of the usual things including 12-15 Little Grebes. Total of 5 Bullfinches.
