Pembrokeshire Choughs

Pembrokeshire has been enjoying some welcome sunshine. I spotted six choughs in one group just round the corner from Strumble Head (heading towards St Davids) and a single chough the next day in the fields next to the end of the public road. There were plenty of stone chats, a bonxie, a linnet and a mass of gannets diving into the sea off the headland. Three seals were popping up in the small bay next to the lighthouse.

Geese in Bluebells

This afternoon we were watching (from a distance) the geese grazing among the bluebells on Cardigan Island. There was a swathe of blue across the top of the island with little flecks of white where the seagulls were resting.
