Where are the Wheater's......
Still no sign of any real migration getting under way, its that "false Spring" feeling with the sun shining but the wind in the wrong direction to really push birds up from the south.
The best I could muster today in strong sunshine and a bitter Easterly was a small group of Teal, two Mallard, two Oystercatchers, one Redshank and one Greenshank.

The Rock Pipits at old Pembrey Harbour are getting in the mood with territorial display and lots of chasing and calling.
The weather looks set for a few days yet, hopefully the wind will die down and a bit more cloud cover.
My plans to spend an extended period on the island of Lesbos have been changed due to family commitments, however I have been granted leave of two weeks to visit in April/May which is a bonus. If you have never visited this the third largest of the Greek Islands then do so either now in Spring or in September you will not be disappointed. Ignore all the media scaremongering regarding the refugee crisis, yes there are lots of refugees but you would have to go out of your way to find them.
