Perfect conditions to survey the lower #Conwy estuary. Several Grey Plovers, two Kingfishers, Bar-tailed Godwit and Guillemot were unusual here, as was a Sandwich Tern for October. Good counts of Eider (10), Sanderlings (99), Ringed Plovers (61) and Little Egret (14). #BirdingWales

A feed to capture Bluesky posts related to birds and ornithology in Wales. Use #birdingWales in posts, or let me know of local tags and they will be captured here too. Posts will also be aggregated into the wider #UKBirding feed.
Nice close encounter with an Arctic Tern at Overton this morning #birds #birdingwales #wildlife #canon
Some of the more than 200 Light-bellied (hrota) Brent Geese at Foryd Bay today. Pic in comments @birdsinwales.bsky.social
The weather conditions are near -perfect for seawatching at Porth Ysgaden today. Stiff onshore winds are driving the birds close to shore and, whilst there aren't many species, there are plenty of birds going past. Pics in comments @birdsinwales.bsky.social
