Llyn Coed y dinas afternoon




A single Redshank was running up and down the left hand side making a decent sharp photograph very difficult. A pair of female Reed Buntings were about most of the time, as was the Common Snipe (still only 1).
Great to see a Chichaff after the winter break, and I was allowed a quick shot.
A Pheasant came down for a drink in the murkey water. The Pochard was about, and also Oystercatchers, Teal, Tufted and a pair of Pied Wagtails.
