Sighting location: Penyfan. Sighting date: 16/12/09
For anyone with a calorie or two they want to burn off pre Xmas, a Snow Bunting has come through the atlas system, seen on the top of Penyfan on 27th November. Seen by a visiting birder/walker. Another has been similarly reported (at lower altitudes) in inland Carms so there may be a wee movement on the go.
