What the records say about Llwyngwril
96 bird species have been recorded within 5 km of the centre of Llwyngwril (Gwynedd) since 2010, across 1,066 public observation records shared through GBIF. The most recorded are European Herring Gull, Carrion Crow and Jackdaw.
Llwyngwril is a garden-bird place: 63% of the records here are small songbirds, doves, woodpeckers and the other birds that come to feeders and garden trees. Carrion Crow, Jackdaw, Magpie and House Sparrow make up the core of what you can expect at a feeder.
7 birds of prey are on record nearby, including Common Buzzard, Red Kite and Osprey.
Records peak in September and are lowest in October — about 14.0 times as many in the busiest month. Part of that is birds (migrants and winter visitors), part is people: more birders are out in good weather, so treat the curve as activity, not a census.
Fairbourne, 4 km to the north-east, has more species on record (149 against 96). Birds logged far more often around Llwyngwril than there include Collared Dove.
