Welsh Pied Flycatchers and Wood Warblers

[the young hunter]

Hi there bird people Just thought I'd write about some of the birds I saw at Lake Vyrnwy and Harlech last thursday since I tend to reside in the wildflower forums

Wondered if anyone else had been near there recently because I was pretty chuffed to see male Redstart, male Whinchat, male Pied Flycatcher, Wood Warbler and 3 Cuckoos - all within 10 metres of me! (not at once I must add).

Really impressed with the birdlife up there...

Thats sounds great!
Never seen a single one of those
Lake Vyrnwy looks really good on Springwatch.

Some good birds there Mike.....I've not seen a Wood Warbler....yet!
Vrynwy is a brilliant reserve,it's been some years since we visited but enjoyed it thoroughly!

Thanks for your replies guys

I reckon everyone should pay the area a visit and if you go onto the high moors... Merlin, Hen Harrier, Black Grouse and Red Grouse can be found (as shown on Springwatch of course).
