Afon Clettwr

Not a great deal along the Clettwr this morning, due to the presence of wildfowlers on the estuary today. However, the Canada geese were all on the distant fields upstream towards Hen Hafod, and the Greenland Whitefronts were with them - mostly distant glimpses, but some better flight views when small groups flew between fields. Two drake Shoveller with the Teal and Lapwings on the Lodge Farm fields. The usual Redshank, Little Egret and Dipper on the river completed the picture. Only one Dipper today - maybe they're moving back upstream to breeding territories now?
