An area that I know you walk regularly and your comments make me feel much better informed. Certainly justifies the post!<br />Always keen to hear about your sightings, particularly Brents, Grebes and anything else. There'll be a Desert Wheatear down there one day!

Kingfishers are seen quite frequently there at the mouth of the River Clyne, and on one occasion I even saw one perched on the beach, alongside the small stream that flows onto the beach slightly West of the River Clyne. They used to be common further up the river, in Clyne Woods, but I haven't seen so many during the last year or two (I often walk up the river through Clyne Woods).Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07533480112477409797noreply@blogger.com
