Gronant - Birthday grueller!

My Birthday cake gets bigger to accommodate more and more candles! It was meant to be a 'lucky' day and a trip to Norfolk was put on hold due to the weather there. A day in North Wales turned into a dip strewn grueller: very briefly.....

First call at Gronant for the Shore Lark ended up as a hard slog for nowt, a few miles of tideline, virtually to the Point of Air ended up nearly blank!






Apart from roosting Sanderling....






5 Grey Plover (a year tick), plus more Sanderling and Dunlin.......








The only Larks on show were plenty of Skylark!!






Llanbedr-y-cennin refused to yield Hawfinch again, hmm maybe my birthday bash is destined to happen on Tuesday with a return to Parkgate (10.2 metre tide) and the Wirral???
