If only it were a Ring Ouzel you say? Well, I was happy to get anything in this weather! Lens and Camera was soaked, including myself. Luckily had a snow proof coat on today as it really did hammer down up on the top of Mynydd Maen Pontypool. Not much happening up there yet, think it's a little too cold still but on the lower parts of the common, the usual was present, including Green Woodpecker, Starlings, Redwing, Blackbird, Wren, Robin, Dunnock and a single Kesrel. 

Was nice to meet some of the locals that took an interest in my recording gear. As if the large lens on the camera wasn't enough to capture peoples attention, the recording parabolic dish certainly did it.
