Not much on the bird front, no summer visitors yet, but the Rooks have started building nests 3 at Garth and 5 at Llangynwyd so far, probably more to come.

Garnwen
A bit of a bright spell between the gloom around noon meant I had time for a quick look around Garnwen. I managed to find 3 species of hoverfly, Platycheirus albimanus and Episyrphus balteatus feeding on Coltsfoot and an Eristalis pertinax on what little sallow was in blossom, the main crop still being 2 or 3 weeks away at this site. The only other insects were a couple of Dung Fly species and 5 Buff-tailed Bumblebee.
