Finished up a great run of Wood Warbler in the Conwy Valley with 30 males and 3 broods ringed this spring under licence. Checked the broods again post-ringing and still doing well!

Quite a few Spotted Flycatcher in N Wales this year. Found this nest whilst they were building. Lots of these root plates offering habitat too this year.

A maintenance check on one of my pied flycatcher sites today. They’d had a bit of battering this winter so some needed replacing.

European Stonechat - late evening at Cemlyn, 24/03/25. A number of birds were colour ringed by
@birdsandbikes.bsky.social
last summer. This bird has remained on site and can be seen around the general area of Tyn Llan pool. Worth keeping an eye out for colour-ringed birds if you are in the area.
