Summary
[edit]DescriptionChoughs-brain coesgoch - geograph.org.uk - 1367214.jpg |
English: Choughs/brain coesgoch These two choughs attracted my attention with their loud calls from which their English name was probably derived: although now pronounced 'chuff' it was originally an onomatopoeic version of their cry 'chee-ow'. The Welsh name, brân coesgoch or red-legged crow, is descriptive. The traditional grazing pattern employed on the Tir Gofal in this part of the coast, using ponies, has maintained the short sward essential for the choughs which use their beaks to probe the soil for insect larvae; the dung of grazing animals also supplies these.
Interestingly they are seen here below the hill called Carn Frân, crow's crag, but this pair probably have a nest in the sea cliffs lower down. |
