Like a few others, I had a mooch around Marloes peninsula this afternoon between 2pm and 4:30pm to check some of the fields. Beautiful calm and unexpectedly mild afternoon. 30 lapwing on the mere but nothing unusual with them, the mere looks great at the moment. A couple of good looking fields and scrapes that were created earlier in the year down towards Martin's Haven but just corvids and increasing numbers of starling, biggest flock c 2,000 birds had caught the attention of a merlin.
