Cattle Egret at Dolydd Hafren

News just in from Will Ferguson: 1 Cattle Egret feeding with 18 Little Egrets this morning along the entrance track to Dolydd Hafren. Yesterday the MWT work party there also saw 1 Great Egret and 5 Grey Herons. The Linnet flock by the track contained a few Bramblings. In front of the Brayton Holt Hide were 3 Egyptian Geese (among many Canadas and Greylags), 14 Curlew and an Oystercatcher.
