June highlights.

Gwent stole the show,firstly the Iberian Chiffchaff,then a much desired mega, a singing male Marmora's Warbler ,which consequently proved to be very obliging for those who twitched it.Meanwhile Cardiff bay turned up a female Marsh Warbler,despite some determined searching it was seen only once at the time of ringing.The rare parade continued with a Gull-Billed tern off the heliport.The good birds continued with Red kite,Whinchat,Garden Warbler, and Green Sandpiper also putting in an appearance locally.
