RSPB Gwenffrwd-dinas

A first visit to this RSPB reserve in Camarthenshire and it blew my mind.  Set in the glorious valleys of Central Wales, the circular walk route through breathtaking scenery, beguiling woodland, alongside a pristine mountain stream that looked perfect for Dipper.

It was a decent drive from Llan-Mill after an enjoyable late luncheon stop at Narberth.

There were quality birds everywhere, at least six singing male Pied Flycatcher, the same number of Wood Warbler in full cascading 'spinning top' melody, at least one superb male Common Redstart in the treetops, and a single Tree Pipit deep within the woodland.  These were accompanied by the more common species, Nuthatch and Treecreeper also seen there.









No sign of Dipper unfortunately but just taking in the immaculate backdrop was enough for me.
