The weather wasn't at its best today! All morning fine rain was in the air, just enough to wet you and with waterproofs on it was so warm that you got wet through sweating. The afternoon was better and I manage to complete the walk without putting my waterproof on again.

Walking along a beach is always good and in all these two walks provided a fair amount.
Part of the walk went through a mature Pine woodland, but alas we didn't see one Red squirrel, but we did see a small Common frog.
Birds seen or heard today included:Collard dove, Woodpigeon, Chiffchaff, Buzzard, Herring gull, Fulmar, Lesser black-backed gull, Black-headed gull, Oystercatcher, Coal tit, Goldfinch, Barn swallow, Curlew, Mallard, Coot, Shelduck, Carrion crow, Linnet, Greenfinch, European robin, Sedge warbler, Greylag goose and Brent goose.
After walk drinks were enjoyed at the Btitannia Inn at Pentre Halkyn. We stayed for a meal as well, Richard enjoying Rabbit pie and Mike and Martyn enjoying the Steak and Ale pie, washed down of course with a good pint of Lees bitter.
