Anglesey Holiday

 Back home for me, to the place of my birth. Long time ago now. It is a long old drag and gets no nearer. But an enjoyable time with family.

This was my best ever encounter with a RAVEN who took an interest in us for over 20 minuets, What a great bird and what a pleasure a simple thing like this can bring. Also on site at RSPB South Stack. Also STONECHAT, GANNET, LINNET, SWALLOW,

Meet the scruffiest ROBIN in the world, fist bird seen where we stayed at Gaerwin, Anglesey.






South Stack gave itself its due reward with this CHOUGH and his three compatriots. 


                                         As for the RAVENS one was absolutely a good friend. 


The most local RSPB was Cors Ddyga, this low marsh was a new one for me  and managed to bring in
some small stuff with BLACKAP, BLUE TIT, REED BUNTING, REED WARBLER, STONECHAT, GREY LAG GEESE, COOT, MALLARD, MUTE SWAN, BLACKBIRD,

 Penros: Feeding the gulls was a means to finding a MED GULL, LITTLE EGERET 3, CURLEW 31,OYSTERCATCHER,

Cemlyn Bay RSPB:  Best bird was this young YELLOW WAG of which there was two. MEADOW PIPIT, GUILIMOT and MANX SHEARWATER flying past the headland COMMON TERN with young and also two flyover WHIMBRAL.
Great Orm: Many large skippers and six spotted burnett.
