Newport Sands and coast north - some sightings from 14th February.

A flock of about 50 curlews were on the field between coastal path and golf course, and on the shore 7 wigeon and 2 ringed plover. Further along the very muddy path (the mud made worse by sheep escapees) there were 3 great northern divers at Cyfrwy just off shore, also a great crested grebe and shags. Last weekend  north of Ceibwr we witnessed a very active feeding frenzy with atleast 50 gannets and a pod of possibly 30 common dolphins.
