A female Merlin was the highlight of a trip to a Dale Airfield this morning. Amongst the other birds that I encountered were 4 Chough, 2 Stonechat, a Buzzard and a Snipe, with a Grey Wagtail at the bottom of the road leading up to the Airfield. As I drove out of Dale, another Merlin flew across the road in front of me.
Yesterday, in a field near Penberi Pond, it was good to catch up with the Russian White-fronted Goose that has been with a group of Canada Geese in that area for over a month now.
On Tuesday evening, a real surprise was a Barn owl that flew up from the ground, as we drove along Jetty Road in Hakin (which runs beside Milford Haven Golf Course) at about 10.30 pm.
