I decided to return at a later date to make some images. My return visit was disappointing, with not a single Chough in sight anywhere. There were plenty of Jackdaws around, which made me work a bit harder as I always got the camera ready just in case as they came closer?I became able to tell whether it was a Chough or not.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.gowerphotography.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/03\/tn_worms-head-1841.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-803\" title=\"Dunnock singing at Worm's Head, Gower\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gowerphotography.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/03\/tn_worms-head-1841.jpg\" alt=\"Dunnock singing at Worm's Head, Gower\" width=\"600\" height=\"399\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gowerphotography.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/03\/tn_worms-head-1841.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.gowerphotography.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/03\/tn_worms-head-1841-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.gowerphotography.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/03\/tn_worms-head-1841-400x266.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I hung around for a few hours, but to no avail.
