Very blustery visit but found a bit of shelter Dale side on the low tide. 45 redshank, 10 turnstone and a snipe flushed from the rocks. 210 Common gull, single adult Mediterranean gull, GN diver making light of the rough bay.
Very brief scan of the mere, pair Tufted duck, pair Gadwall. Everything flushed inc the big flock of lapwing but couldn't see the culprit.
No sign of Derek's swans at Sandy Haven, I checked a few fields between here and back to Milford and then back towards St Ishmaels. A peregrine flushed a mixed flock of Golden plover and lapwing. More lapwing flying over on a brief stop at Bicton reservoir, a teal the only duck.
Sad to see about 100m of hedge has been cut to the ground or grubbed out just by Walwyns Castle.
