The real McCoy

After last month's pretender (http://goweros.blogspot.com/2010/01/almost-goodie.html), it was good to see the genuine article at WWT today, this being the bird found yesterday by Joek Roex. This is now the third record at the Llanelli centre, the others both being spring birds in 2003 and 2008. Hopefully this bird will stray across the border, so worth checking Penclawdd Pill next time you're passing!

Almost a goodie!


This Green-winged Teal x Eurasian Teal hybrid was feeding just by the layby at Dalton's Point (SS536959) at mid-day. Hopefully I'll get to see the real McCoy there one day!
