We were very excited to be visited by this rare pale buzzard - this great action picture was taken by 10 year old Alaw!
Thank you to Harry Pepper of Ceredigion Birds for identifying this beautiful bird for us, who said,
"Cwm Rheidol in particular is noted for its unusually white birds...Congratulations to Alaw for her photographs. It isn’t easy to take birds in flight, particularly birds of prey."
