Lots of Firecrest and Goldcrest again today at Kenfig NNR. This one stayed still just about long enough to photograph (no such luck with the hyperactive Firecrests!). #birds #birdingWales @eastglambto.bsky.social @rspbcymru.bsky.social @glamorganbirdclub.bsky.social

There have been quite a few Firecrests at Kenfig NNR this Autumn (the Ringers have ringed 7) but I haven't seen one until today when there were at least 2 behind the Reserve building. #birds #birdingWales @rspbcymru.bsky.social @eastglambto.bsky.social @glamorganbirdclub.bsky.social

A very quiet Saturday afternoon at Kenfig Pool with few birds of note until this Arctic Tern flew in. #birds #birdingWales @eastglambto.bsky.social @glamorganbirdclub.bsky.social @rspbcymru.bsky.social

A short trip this afternoon to the Ogmore estuary for this Red-breasted Merganser found by Paul Roberts. #birds #birdingWales @btocymru.bsky.social @rspbcymru.bsky.social @eastglambto.bsky.social @glamorganbirdclub.bsky.social

One of two Wheatear present at Sker Point on Friday, probably the last I'll see until next spring.

A trip to the Somerset Levels on Thursday to try and see Bearded Reedlings but they didn't show. Plenty of other birds to see though, including quite a few Marsh Harrier - great to see them doing so well. #birds #rspb

I finally caught up with the Glossy Ibis that's been frequenting Kenfig Pool over the last week or so (thanks to Neil Donaghy for the notification).

After posing well for photos showing back/side views this Hobby flew off and was then re-located giving excellent front views - a very obliging model! At Kenfig NNR this evening. #birds #birdingWales @eastglambto.bsky.social @glamorganbirdclub.bsky.social

Really pleased to catch up with this Hobby at Kenfig Pool this evening, my first of the year.

I couldn't resist posting another of the photos of the Sabine's Gull, one of six at Jackstones Pier, Aberavon this morning - quite a sight to have them flying around the end of the breakwater. #birds #birdingwales @eastglambto.bsky.social @glamorganbirdclub.bsky.social

Amazing to see 6 Sabine's Gulls at Jackstones Pier, Aberavon this morning. Two Grey Phalarope also present. #birds #birdingWales @eastglambto.bsky.social @glamorganbirdclub.bsky.social

It was worth getting wet to get this lovely Black Tern this morning at Kenfig Pool. Many thanks to Neil Donaghy (once again!) for putting the news out promptly so others can see it. #birds #birdingWales @eastglambto.bsky.social @glamorganbirdclub.bsky.social

Always nice to see a Spotted Flycatcher - this one was at Kenfig NNR this morning. #birds #birdingWales @eastglambto.bsky.social @glamorganbirdclub.bsky.social

I was lucky to spend an hour or so with this beautifully marked Grey Phalarope at Sker Pool near Kenfig NNR this afternoon - found by Dean Bolt. #birdingWales #birds @eastglambto.bsky.social @glamorganbirdclub.bsky.social #britishbirds

Pleased to have caught up with this Grey Phalarope on the river Ogmore this evening, found by John Lugg. #birds #birdingWales @glamorganbirdclub.bsky.social @eastglambto.bsky.social

Fairly quiet at Kenfig Pool this afternoon with only a Black-tailed Godwit, Little Egret and this Great White Egret of note. #birds #birdingWales @glamorganbirdclub.bsky.social

One more shot of the very confiding Black-tailed Godwit that's been present at Kenfig for over a week now. It seems healthy enough, eating well and fairly mobile so perhaps it just likes Kenfig! #birds #birdingWales @glamorganbirdclub.bsky.social

Pleased to catch up with the Little Stint at Kenfig Pool this evening - a lovely little bird.

A late evening visit to Sker on Friday resulted in good numbers of Oystercatchers, Ringed Plover, Sanderling, Herring and Black-headed Gulls, a few Turnstones, two Curlew and a solitary returning Wheatear. #birds #birdingWales

An enjoyable visit to Pembrey old harbour for the tern roost. The anticipated Sandwich and Common were joined by a bonus couple of Little Terns. Good numbers of Med and Common Gulls also present. #birds #birdingWales

I couldn't resist posting another photo of the breeding-plumaged Cattle Egret that dropped into Kenfig Pool this morning. #birds #birdingWales #birdsinWales

A quick walk up the east shore at Kenfig this morning with Neil Donaghy and Mike Cram when a beautiful breeding plumaged Cattle Egret flew in and stayed just long enough for a few photos. #birds #birdsinwales #birdingwales

These two Kestrel siblings were being given a lesson in hunting for prey by the female adult who was very active nearby. #birds #birdingWales #birdsinWales
