From Graham Brace: Redshanks have returned to Llangwm Pill after an absence of three months...a week later than usual. According to my records over the last 10 years or so they normally arrive back on the 21st June, the longest day, give or take a day either side. I have been monitoring the Pill every day and on Thursday 28th June there was a group of 25 feeding in the gullies at low tide. I expect that number to increase over the coming days and weeks to the normal overwintering population which peaks at around 50 birds.
