First stop this morning was South Stack RSPB. Always amazing scenery here even with the seabirds now absent. Chough near the small ponds, some very obliging Rock Pipits and Stonechats, and Raven over the mountain.
In the afternoon we returned to Valley Lakes RSPB to see if we could refind yesterday's 'blue' butterfly. Only Common Blues but a Clouded Yellow was an extra bonus. As was the fem/juv Marsh Harrier. A group of 14 Raven circling together was impressive.
The day finished with a round of golf at Anglesey Golf Course. An extremely fun old fashioned links course with sheep grazing the fairways. I was happy shooting an 80. A flock of 40 Curlew on one fairway were nice. The jets from RAF Valley added an extra spectacle.
