Looking back on a week in amazing Anglesey and wonderful wider North Wales
Over the past week another trip outside of England for me this year among mountains centred on a beautiful island has allowed us to have a special wild adventure. It was a week of splendour, spectacle and thrilling experiences.
Bird and mammal wise we saw some of the finest sights UK wildlife has to offer, from being ensconced in the spectacular tern and gull colony of Cemlyn, seeing our first Arctic Terns this year and marveling at the many neat Sandwich Tern, also seeing Common Tern and Black-headed Gull with views of chicks enjoyed to watching in aw in the evening sunlight a Red Squirrel feed in the magical Newborough Forest an astonishing sight to ensure I’ve seen these divine mammals in England, Scotland and Wales this year. The distinctive smell, consuming noise and fantastic sight of seabird colonies dominated the week, with charismatic and eyecatching Puffins, Guillemots, Razorbills, Kittiwakes, Fulmars, Shag and more enjoyed between two visits to the fabulous RSPB South Stack and a brilliant boat trip around Puffin Island. Days full of glee. Staggeringly intimate views of Grey Seal on the boat trip and fine evening views of Manx Shearwater gliding across the sea at Cemaes where we stayed and Llanbadrig and some seen at Cemlyn on the last morning were other moments of nautical wild bliss. It was phenomenal and valuable to get such splendid views of Black Guillemots again across the week, a favourite bird of mine we don’t get at home which I am having a top year for. Anglesey is synonymous with Choughs and at South Stack, the Range and on a journey at one point we have had some sensational times seeing these red and black wonders exceptionally well. Their sharp call and breathtaking appearance has left me spellbound and filled my heart with joy. We also saw some at the Great Orme on a wider North Wales part of the trip.
A Black Guillemot at Holyhead Fish Quay on Sunday evening
Chough at South Stack on Monday
The Red Squirrel we saw at Newborough Forest
Adding further gloss and helping my bird year list become personally historic was my first sighting this year of a Little Ringed Plover on a wider jaunt to RSPB Conwy. Other standout birds of the trip included Shelduck, Oystercatcher, Red-breasted Merganser, Gannet including on Ynys Badrig, Herring Gull, House Martins, Swallow, Whitethroat, Bullfinch, Pied Wagtail, Wheatear, Rooks heard and seen well from the lovely cottage we stayed in, Raven, Jay and Buzzard. Crossing Eryri on Wednesday on the way back from Conwy seeing Grey Wagtail at Betws-y-Coed, Hen Harriers and Goosander and Common Sandpiper at Llyn Ogwen added some top species to the week.
Wren at Nant-y-Pandy on Thursday which was a joy to see too.
In spring/summer holidays geared towards birds it’s always nice to see some insects during it and it occurred to me during the week we might be able to see Silver-studded Blues here, that we did at the Range by South Stack on Tuesday. Immersive moments watching this precious gem of a butterfly. In heatwave conditions as the week went on Ringlet, Dark Green Fritillary, Small Skipper and Common Grayling at the Great Orme probably of the sub species Hipparchia semele emerging early and unique to this site were ones we saw for the first time this year as I sailed into seeing summer butterfly species, with Meadow Brown, Common Blue, Large Skipper, Small Tortoiseshell and oh so many Red Admirals also seen. Hummingbird hawk-moth, Silver Y, my first Six-spot Burnets of the year seen well, Straw Dot, Brown-silver Line and Grass Veneers made it a marvellous moth week too.

Caterpillars played their part too with a few seen, this of the Oak Eggar moth at South Stack.
As hoped we saw Four-spotted Chaser dragonflies, with a surprise Golden-ringed Dragonfly an exquisite moment in the trip at a stream at Nant-y-Pandy aka the Dingle and Southern Hawker also firsts for the year. Emperor, Broad-bodied Chaser as well as Blue-tailed, Common Blue and Azure Damselflies and Banded Demoiselle were pleasant to see too. It was also a top trip of beetles with many Swollen-thighed beetles and my first ever Chrysomela populi and Rose Chafer beetle seen.
Mating Azure Damselflies which was a strong memory of a hot and sunny time at Cors Ddyga on Thursday.
The Chrysomela populi, one of many we saw on a Newborough dune walk on Thursday.
It was a flower fest this week with massive species of my year seen such as my first alluring bee and pyramidal orchids of the year at RSPB Conwy and lots of sheep’s-bit. Marsh helleborine, early marsh orchid, purple sandwort, sea plantain and bright yellow-horned poppy were new flower species I was amazed to see. Thrift, sea and red campion, chamomile, wild carrot and cabbage, foxgloves, thyme, wall pennywort, bird’s-foot trefoil and rich English stonecrop seen consistently well were strong characteristic plants of the trip for me as many were when here two years ago. And on that note I could not forget the joy of seeing again at Valley Wetlands and Cors Ddyga RSPB reserves my star flower from 2021, excellent marsh cinquefoil.
One of the many RSPB Conwy bee orchids seen
Centaury at South Stack, another key one this week.
The views were something else again; cliff, beach and dune coast, woodland, heath, meadow, lake and mountains. There were breathtaking moments observing stunning landscapes and being immersed in them on Friday riding the Great Orme cable cars at Llandudno and going three quarters of the way up Yr Wyddfa on the Snowdon Mountain Railway. I enjoyed stunning scenes of the sun going down over the water on evenings at Cemaes and Llanbadrig. It is such an aesthetically pleasing part of the world. What a week, so much covered and seen and so many glorious memories made. I love Anglesey and North Wales generally and I can’t wait to come back.

Little Ringed Plover:💥
The little ringed plover is a small plover. The genus name Charadrius is a Late Latin word for a yellowish bird mentioned in the fourth-century Vulgate. These birds forage for food on muddy areas, usually by sight. They eat insects and worms.

Some key birds of my 2023
In the Cairngorms in April it was an honour to encounter charming Crested Tits again, watching a wholesome Snow Bunting briefly at Cairngorm and at Norfolk's Holkham two months earlier was thrilling and on a scorching June day the sight of a Little Ringed Plover dashing through the air at RSPB Conwy was gleeful. On the evenings around Christmas I shall be posting some blogs to reflect on my year, remembering some wonderful experiences watching nature and being outdoors that I've had in England, Scotland and Wales this year across the themes of birds and mammals, butterflies and moths, dragon/damselflies and other wildlife, flowers and fungi and landscapes. I am in the final stages of putting them together and reviewing which birds I've seen should be in the birds and mammals post as I'm aiming to keep them concise, so thought I'd do a bit of an appetizer today featuring some of the species which didn't quite make the post.
Where dashing Fieldfares epitomized winter and autumn, stunning Sedge Warblers embodied spring and summer. Fine Whinchats at Hook-with-Warsash was a tasty bit of summer birding. Nuthatches embraced me on working days seeing my first of the year at Lakeside Country Park on a January working from home lunch break with them heard and seen well on August lunch breaks at Lakeside and also in Winchester on an office day. I saw Ring-necked Parakeets at my patch Lakeside more than ever this year and these screeching emerald birds were a star on our annual September royal parks trip to Bushy Park as I was immersed in watching them. I enjoyed many intimate and connected moments with Kestrels locally and further afield this year and gigantic Red Kites seen many times were another key part of a sensational year I've had for birds of prey.
Ring-necked Parakeet at Bushy Park
Kestrel with prey at Farlington Marshes in September
There were exceptional times I had this year spellbound by watching arresting Kingfishers, from a January spectacle with two at Winnall Moors to Titchfield Haven and more. Mediterranean Gulls with their exotic feel from Radipole Lake to Lakeside and others, Iceland Gull an early gem of my year and once again exciting Yellow-legged Gulls at Rutland Water in July were three of my favourite birds to see this year. Another winter experience consuming to the senses was watching bewitching Bewick's Swans early in the year at WWT Slimbridge, Goldeneye in England and Scotland is a species that kept on giving for me and Black-necked Grebe was another precious species seen early on. Two breathtaking birds I was honoured to see a few times throughout the year where I saw so many amazing places were Great White Egret and Spoonbill. Seeing three exquisite and exuberant waders across England and Scotland throughout the year brought me immense joy; Golden Plover, Greenshank and Bar-tailed Godwit.
