  Starling
 
  All week a pre-roost gathering on a tall pylon and adjacent wires before flying to nearby roost which has been used in recent winters. Only up to 800 birds but still an impressive sight and sound.

  Yellowhammer 1
 
  Clarification: See my last posting.
My informant`s reference to yellowhamers near Troserch also refers to the late 1970s/early 80s and NOT recently.

  Seen from car, an adult perched in adjacent roadside hedge at the end of July. Information given to me by reliable informant (who also gave me substantiated other non-bird records). He also told me of the presence of yellowhammers near Troserch, Llangennech exactly where I saw them in 1976-7. Name of informant not known – sorry!
