The main reason for joining this Board today is to try and find out the answer to a question that I have not managed to gain elsewhere.
First though let me say that I have caused a bit of controversy in north Wales by my report that a corncrake has been nesting in my garden and has produced two broods. That is a long story but wildlife websites tell me that corncrakes have not been sighted in north Wales since 2015.
So, to the question; do pheasants still call when sitting on the nest with hatchlings?
As an aside; can anyone contribute to this matter of rarity of corncrakes in north Wales?
