Forest Farm

Rained off today so decided to pop down Forest Farm for an hour,as soon as i got to the canal i had a Kingfisher perched on a branch followed seconds later by a Dipper and Grey Wagtail. On to the hide with no door which was very quiet apart from two Snipe, a Heron and a fly over Jay, moved onto the second hide where i had great views of a Kingfisher,two Water Rail having a domestic and an aerial battle between a Carrion Crow and a Sparrowhawk which was quite entertaining.Popped over to Radyr to have another look at the salmon that were trying unsuccessfully to get up the weir on Saturday but after all the heavy rain none were seen,birds of note were another Kingfisher,Heron and a small flock of Long tailed tits.
