Marloes Mere and Gann

To add to Brian's Marloes Peninsula records, I saw 28 chough flying far side of the Mere late morning. Sparrowhawk bombed across the mud exposed section and landed other side of bush at far end of pool. Buzzard in the usual place on far side of the mere. One snipe on edge of the pool and saw a flock of ~25 Lapwing flying past at one point. Otherwise quite quiet so enjoyed watching some of the more common species around the willows like this Blue Tit. 

Dropped down to the Gann but was there at wrong point of the tide. One Ringed Plover and a Dunlin off the spit at high tide. To add to the rings from a few days ago Redshank L8 was seen off the lagoon.
