Back in Wales and enjoyed a wonderful walk in Taliaris Woods in fine weather. Plenty of Crossbill activity although only 6 were seen but plenty of calling in the forest canopy.
Crossbill
Walked to the lake where a few Coot were present which suggests they may have bred again up here. The greatest moment was when a female Goshawk broke cover from the low sallows on the shore and quiettly disappeared into the forest.
Quite a heavy looking bill on this one! Not necessarily suggesting anything rare, it just looks quite chunky to me?
