Guest Gwydhyel Report post Posted October 24, 2007 We have a smallish flock here in the village, but in the summer we often see huge flocks of them in the surrounding woodlands and open countryside. As we have lots of Buzzards and other large birds of prey too, they clearly are very good at surviving. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
