Above Madogs Wells
A view this afternoon towards Snowdonia, highest point in the area, large flock of Starlings here, a good recci, will be back on a warmer and less windy day all being well. Should be the place for Wheatears and others in months to come. Local farmer allows access to the views but you need to put a £1 coin in a box attached to the iron gate towards `meningitis research.
