House Martin

House Martin. Pencarnan's first of the year passing through with a handful of Swallows above Porthselau Beach.

Always good to get this one ticked off having spent the past two weeks carefully looking through flocks of Sand Martins, baiting me as they flick over their white bellies as they head off into the distance. I can now relax from looking at all the hirundines. Or can I? How about a Red Rumped Swallow? Must keep the bins at the ready.

6 alba wagtails around the legs of the camp's horses earlier today. They look so clean in their breeding plumage. (0 pieds).
