12th July - more cloud, early shower Llangollen

Llangollen; up very early to check River Dee, fortunately a single Dipper was feeding.

South Stack RSPB; next stop was here to see the sea birds, stopping at Holyhead harbour to see Black Guillemot -  it was cloudy and with some sea mist blowing in, clearing as the morning progressed.
Only a single Black Guillemot was seen, it appeared to be sitting on a nest in the harbour wall.

At South Stack the sea birds were busy with their young, Guillemots, Razorbills and a few Kittiwake  and Puffin.  Fascinating to watch them, not very elegant when landing on the sea.

Off shore a few Gannet and Manx Shearwater passed by, sometimes quite close.

It was good to see a pair of Chough with a 'begging' juvenile, often feeding it.

Other birds seen included a Wheatear, Meadow and Rock Pipits, at least 3 families of Stonechat and several Linnet families.
