Ring-tail Hen Harrier giving good views between 17:08 and 17:24. A handful of Golden Plover near Hen Harrier when I first picked it up at distance but I had to ignore those to follow the raptor. Earlier, the second visit this year (and the third this winter) to Fan Foel/Brycheiniog drew yet another blank on Snow Bunting. 5+ Skylark were moving around on the way up (one in brief song). Female Crossbill at Belfont/Glasfynydd.
