Prynhawn da pawb, a croeso.

A quiet week by recent standards and not a great deal to "blog" about.

I did deploy a remote camera, a rather clever one that sends the images immediately to my mobile phone, not a lot of action to be honest especially at night despite "something" triggering the sensor whatever it was was too quick, that is until last night  when a Badger was recorded just going about it's business. Unfortunately to see the actual video you will need to go to my Facebook page or X (Twitter) account @pen_bre-ranger

As spring moves on to summer and many long awaited for  migrant birds have arrived, such as  Wheatear, Cuckoo Grasshopper Warbler Whitethroat and Lesser Whitethroat there is one bird that I am eagerly awaiting of course that is the Nightjar. Hopefully as in recent years a pair will settle at Llyn Llech Owain Country Park, even more hopefully we have removed two areas of Sitka Spruce leaving areas of clear-fell, something Nightjars like, more habitat more opportunities for territories to be established.

If you are venturing to listen for and hopefully see then just before darkness in June is a pretty good. If there is enough demand I'll organise an evening walk to listen for and possibly see the birds
