3 juv Black Terns were in Baglan Bay after high tide, today. Initially one was feeding along the shoreline of Crymlyn Burrows and then flying out into the bay, before, a little later, 3 were found amongst a feeding flock of Black-headed Gulls just off Aberavon Beach. The brisk SW wind seemed to be keeping them in the bay and 2 Sandwich Terns were also circulating the open water and shorelines both sides of the Neath River.
Sanderling (345), Dunlin (70+), Ringed Plover (150+), Turnstone (2), Sandwich Tern (2), Black Tern (3).
The dunes held a good group of Stonechats (12) and also here Whitethroat (1), Sedge Warbler (1), Chiffchaff (1), Linnet (c40) & Reed Bunting (4)
