Noswaith Dda, Good Evening. Stuck under cloudy skies here in South Wales so decided to brighten things up with little cutie, Long Tailed Tit (Titw Cynffon-hir). Taken at Forest Farm, Cardiff in January. 🪶 #birdingwales #ukbirding

Noswaith Dda, good evening. I took this Spotted Flycatcher ( Cynffon Ysgafn) at RSPB Arne in Dorset earlier this year. A life tick for me! 🪶 #ukbirding #naturephotography #wildbirdphotography

It was a long way off, circling over Cardigan but a great sight. Cynffon Coch (I think that's right) Red Kite, popularly known as the national bird of Wales. 🪶 #birdingwales #ukbirding #BirdsSeenIn2025

Finally got pictures of Long Tailed Tits, took a long walk around Forest Farm to catch up with them. Titw Cynffon Hir in Welsh. Check out the orange eyelid in full screen. Can see why they're known as the "lollypop" bird. 🪶 #birdingwales #ukbirding #nature #wildlife

I recall doing a double take when I came across this in Laȝamon's Brut. But of course, it's perfectly sensible really because it's Welsh for Spear :
rhônl [?cf. rhawn] eb.g. ll. rhonau. Gwaywffon, gwayw, picell, hefyd yn ffig.; cynffon: spear, lance, pike, also fig.; tail.

I could do all the pics in my next Welsh book with AI, but I believe in paying artists, not stealing from them. If you have a fiver to share so I can pay the wonderful Lizzie Harper for some of her illustrations, that'd be grand. Pre-register here:
