A really good day at Eglwys today with nice stuff throughout the day.

One of the four juvenile Black Terns that were flying around the res today

Also today, this adult Common Tern with Black-headed Gulls. A 1stW Little Gull was flying flying around the res too. This is a different bird to the two seen here, earlier this week. Barry has also recorded Little Gull in the Burry Inlet recently so it is obviously a good time to see this species.

One of the 2 Whinchat that were feeding in the scruby area under the pylons on the South-western side of the res.

Two of the four Whinchats near the road that runs out to the beach through Margam Moors. Also in this area a Yellow Wagtail was feeding amongst the cows briefly today.

Talk about buses! I also saw a Whinchat today at WWT Llanelli, where there were 5 Black Terns, 4 Garganey and lots of waders. When walking the dog, there were two Black Terns south of Loughor Bridge first thing. Well done with your shots, the only things I photographed today were much more static!
Nice one Mark - I still haven't seen a Whinchat in Glamorgan yet this year. They really should be at KNNR by now...
Neil , you really need to get out up north more often as this year there have been record numbers breeding
Anon - I agree, but I want one at kenfig as I am doing a year list on the reserve
