Brill days birding in Wales with some top company. The Western Reef Heron at Caernarfon is a really smart bird. Other highlights were Chough and Woodchat Shrike at South Stack and Black Guillemots in Holyhead Harbour. #phonescoped

On patch, I managed only 91 species on 52 checklists. In a usual year, I tend to submit between 70-100. Still, 3 new species got on the patchlist with 2 flyover Ring-necked parakeets on 18th Sept, and the flood in May enticed 2 Shelduck down on the 2nd and a Redshank on the 7th.

Lovely day for a bit of birding at Padley and surrounding areas. Plenty of Pied fly but couldn't find a single Spotted in the 3 hours I was there. A couple of Redstarts and a Tree pipit the other highlights.
