A first summer Med. Gull was at Llyn Coed-y-Dinas this afternoon. GC Grebes still displaying, and Black-Headed Gull chicks attracting the attention of a Buzzard, and Lesser Black-Backed Gulls. One Oystercatcher chick was on the island, and appears to be on the point of fledging. Still 6 Shelduck - presumably non-breeders?
