What the records say about Llandinam
102 bird species have been recorded within 5 km of the centre of Llandinam (Sir Powys) since 2010, across 669 public observation records shared through GBIF. The most recorded are Carrion Crow, Red Kite and Common Pheasant.
Llandinam is a garden-bird place: 65% of the records here are small songbirds, doves, woodpeckers and the other birds that come to feeders and garden trees. Carrion Crow, Blackbird, Blue Tit and Woodpigeon make up the core of what you can expect at a feeder.
11 birds of prey are on record nearby, including Red Kite, Common Buzzard and Barn Owl. A hawk that hunts feeder birds is among them, so set feeders 2–3 metres from shrubs: close enough for cover, far enough that a cat can't ambush from it.
Records peak in April and are lowest in October — about 31.3 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.
Caersws, 4 km to the north, has more species on record (110 against 102).
Daylight runs from 16 h 50 min at midsummer to 7 h 40 min at midwinter here. Sunrise is about 6:18 in mid-April and 4:50 in late June; the dawn chorus starts 30–60 minutes earlier.
