2 female ring-necked duck at Rosebush reservoir this afternoon, apart from being no closer than 400m, they were frustratingly often out of sight behind the overhanging tree in the NE corner where the stream runs in, or sleeping. Probably best viewed from the track through the willow scrub off the B4313, park in Pantmaenog car park and walk carefully down the road, view from about here SN 06601 29596. Also 11 Tufted duck (8m).3 Coot, 3 little grebe, single GC grebe.
Llys-y-fran: a brief pre-dusk visit. The roost was pretty much already set towards the top half opposite the hide so given my arrival time it was a distant watch. 5 Yellow-legged gull (4 adult and a 3cy), 3 GBB (2 adult and a 2cy), 2 adult Mediterranean gull. 4 goldeneye (3m), 5 GC grebe. 2 Chiffchaff one in song.
