LLYN CYD./BURGESS CROFT

 Trev, thanks for your response. bird seen Was'nt a Dunnock or Wren, although both types are seen fairly regularly there. on the Croft both species are now becoming regular visitors to or around the feeders along with the usual Blue, Great and Coal Tit's, Chaffinch's, Blackbird's, Gold Finch's, and a few visits by Green Finch's.  Since last weekend, most mornings, three or four flocks of about 60 to 80 finch's have dropped onto the larger trees on the Croft before flying on heading south. mainly chaffinch and goldfinch with a few Brambling amongst them, One small flock of Greenfinch's (about 40) seen and they looked in good condition as seeming again this year they are suffering from desease.
