There was a good selection of Birds on a grey and murky day at The Welsh Wildlife Centre 4 days ago including Robins and a Mistle thrush both specially there for Christmas, also, Water rail, Curlew, Teal, a lovely drake Goldeneye and in the afternoon gloom a pair of Reed bunting

 

Unusual, for me at least to see a Mistle thrush on the Teifi marshes. Photo taken from the Old Rail Track near the Mallard Hide on 17 December

 

No doubt 'real photographers' can find all sorts of faults with the photos but tonight as I watched the Moon rise over St David's Airfield the experience was really what mattered. No wind and silence - can't beat it. Such a magical County we live in.

 

BIRDIES - a few from Cilgerran a couple of weeks ago Curlew, Heron, Little grebe and Snipe

 

A highlight of winter for me are Whooper swans returning to Pembrokeshire from their breeding grounds in Iceland. Here are 8 of them spending time near Croes Goch. Magnificant birds of the wild. Long distance photos very heavily cropped

 

Threatening clouds over Ramsey Sound

 

Yet another fantastic Pembrokeshire sunset, this time from Newgale. I really was not sure which photo to post so I posted all four in the hope you like one of them. We in St Davids are so lucky that our local coast looks sort of West. Again no filters - as it was - our World at its best.
