Went kayaking out of Lower Town Fishguard yesterday afternoon and spent the night on a small inaccessible (by land) beach near the fort. I didn’t sleep that well but didnt expect to hear in the dead of night several Manx Shearwaters just off the fort flying around and calling. No idea how many were around and probably not that unusual so close in, it was just a first for me. On the paddle out a pair of Oystetcatchers with 2 juvs protested loudly and single Whimbrel and Common Sandpiper, while after sunrise this morning a Kestrel explored the cliffs while 2 Chough tumbled around near Goodwick beach.
