The cold northerlies are keeping the lid on any bird movements - at Ty Mawr, Llangasty tonight there was nothing new. Apart from Raven on eggs and 10 Curlew flying about, it still feels and looks like January. No Mipits, Wagtails, Wheatears or Martins yet. Also failed to hear Cettis tonight, but did have 1-2 singing/trilling last week.

There were six dippers between the bungalow at 246294 and the Grwyne Fawr reservoir dam today. Most were ringed and from the photos i took I could see RR01 on one ring. Doubt this is sufficient to be much use though.
