Dale airfield

Very quiet on a blustery airfield, the track up was more interesting and sheltered. Scanning the fields around the village turned up a single cattle egret among the cattle by the cemetery later rising to three on the way down. A woodcock flushed from the side of the track. A late swallow heading south. A few Song thrush around both on the track and flushing from the braken along the coast path. A merlin flashed through low and fast Marloes Sands end. A nice male hen harrier across the road back to Haverfordwest between Hasguard Cross and Rosepool heading Talbenny way.
