Anglesey adventures - Day 6 (August 7)



Back to Cemlyn Bay for a morning walk along the shingle bank that divides the sea from the lagoon.

The red-breasted merganser female and juveniles were still there (pictured above). They kept their distance but I did get excellent views with the scope. I also managed to capture them on film: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j5IARZZYZSc
Other birds included: little egret (2), curlew (32 on grass on far side of lagoon), wheatear, redshank (9 seen at one time), dunlin (several), turnstone, ringed plover (several).
