Last two evenings surveying in the dark on our Frenni and Boncath sites. Frenni, 60
Golden Plovers, 12
Woodcock, 10
Fieldfare, 4
Snipe. The small groups of Woodcock rather than individuals spaced out on the hillsides indicative of migrating birds.
On Boncath fields last night, our highest ever count of 26 Golden Plover and 8 Woodcock. A Woodcock weighing just over 400g a sign of a migrant - most mid winter birds weigh nearer 300-320g
