Teifi Geese

An early look for waders before the rain resulted in just 3 Dunlin. We have watched the small wader flock reducing every day over the last week.
The estuary was full of noisy Geese though. 114 Barnacles presumably the Cardigan Island flock, 1300 Canada Geese, 3 Greylags and a Bar-headed.
No sea watch today with poor visibility and no wind but yesterday was notable for the number of Gannets passing - 189 in an hour with no Skuas or Shearwaters and just a low number of Kittiwakes.
