Pastor roseus

A rare occasional visitor in the spring and autumn.

In the Tenby Guide the Rev. C. M. Phelps states that the Rose Pastor has been seen in Pembrokeshire without specifying either locality or date, but we believe it was in the neighhourhood of St. Florence. The Rev. Clennell Wilkinson has informed us that he is pretty certain that he has seen a Rose Pastor at Castle Martin.
