With the sun shining, a blue sky and no wind, and a report of four Twite just down the road at Penrhyn Bay, it was time for a break. A few minutes' drive and then a hop over the sea wall and there were the Twite feeding on seed heads right by the concrete sea-defences. These pretty little finches were fairly confiding but were spooked by a gang of yobs hurling rocks at a sign warning of the danger of climbing on the very rocks they were standing on. Sadly, the rocks were not dangerous enough and the yobs were unscathed. The Twite soon came back down and continued to feed happily. Two Rock Pipits flew in landed nearby but all too soon it was time to get back to the typing.We are giving another talk at RSPB Conwy on Friday 11th December at 7pm.
