First port of call was the Great Orme, yesterday there had been reports of Ring Ouzel and Dotterol up here but none were around today. Plenty of Wheatear and Meadow Pipit plus Razor Bill and Guillemots out at sea. Plenty of cute looking lambs around (just don't mention mint source) plus Spotted Orchids around the car park near the church.
Was then off to Conwy for a gentle walk and fingers crossed for the summer plumaged Spotted Redshank. The Spotted Redshank was not around even after the tide had brought the waders on to the reserve.
Plenty of warblers around Willow, Reed and Sedge plus Blackcap.
On the wader front there was a lone Greenshank, Little Ringed Plover, Lapwing, Oystercatcher and Curlew.
