American Wigeon - Teifi Estuary

An American Wigeon found and photographed by David Clarke yesterday at Gwbert was present again this morning. (Photos on Ceredigion Birds and Wildlife Facebook)

At 8am it was just upstream of Cardigan boat club slipway then it flew across the estuary to Pembrokeshire to the salt marsh by the Teifi Waterside Hotel. It was present with 250 Eurasian Wigeon until 9.30 when the flock started splitting up as the tide dropped.
