St Govan's Hd / Manorbier / Penally

A steady movement of birds at St Govan's this morning. In about an hour or so, 97 Chaffinch, 38 Linnet and 41 Skylark flew east. Quiet in the bushes - a handful of Song Thrush and Blackbirds. 
Offshore 2 Common Scoter flew south, a Dark-bellied Brent Goose flew east towards Broad Haven South beach (may have landed there) and a Black-throated Diver flew west. 
A quick check of Bosherston village produced a female-type Black Redstart.

Later in the afternoon a Swallow flew over Penally marsh. (One flew east at Skrinkle yesterday morning too, or maybe it's the same one?). 
Also yesterday 2 Firecrest at Manorbier, one along the footpath by St. James's Church and another by the car park.
