Broadhaven to Haroldston Chins

From Vicky Pearson: An early walk this morning along the coast path from Broad Haven to Haroldston Chins was rewarded with large flocks of meadow pipits and goldfinches; a few linnet, lots of robins at regular intervals, some dunnocks and stonechats and a few wrens. 

And my first common scoter of the season - a small flock of about 10 just north of the Sleekstone.  Mostly male, just one female.  They were quite restless and flighty and there were possibly more that I couldn’t spot. 

And a Greater Spotted Woodpecker in my garden - not a normal garden bird for me, right on the cliff top!  A poor photo taken through the window attached:
