Angle Peninsula

From Toby Middlemist: This morning I visited Angle Bay, which was fairly quiet except for 32 Brents and 15 shelducks, as well as the mighty total of 4 oystercatchers, 2 curlews, and 12 redshanks...  A couple of chiffchaffs were around as were a total of 43 goldfinches. At West Angle, a few more oystercatchers, some singing skylarks, and an offshore Red-throated Diver. 

We then drove to Freshwater West, where at the car park was my first hirundine of the year, Swallows! Two, possibly more were around the car park. I then walked towards Castlemartin Corse for the first time, unfortunately, the opposite side to the hide! Still, lots of stonechats, meadow pipits, more skylarks, and best of all a Male Hen Harrier which was east from the hide.
