Birds. Mostly Chester and Pembrokeshire.

Must be protein free,
Seriously gammy knee,
I love Pipits, me.

This superb breeding plumage Grey Plover spent 4 days at Tenby south beach. No sign of it this evening so I assume it has continued on its northward migration #birdingWales

I did get out for a bit of a South Pembs bird race on 2nd Jan. It was a great day with loads of birds! I saw 98 species throughout the day, including Slavonian Grebe, Whooper Swan, Black Redstart, Great Northern Divers etc.
A nice way to start off the year #birdingWales
