Sand Martins at Newgale

From M Hopkins:

My wife and I paid a short visit to Newgale around 5 to 7 pm today (Thursday)and were delighted to see the Sand Martin colony extremely busy with adults feeding young in the burrows,, some were actually landing on the beach presumably to pick up insects. Even more interesting was to see another smaller colony, maybe six to eight burrows, just a little further along to the east. I’m sure there are many more than last year.
