A lesser whitethroat near Tresaith yesterday evening (28th).
A kingfisher briefly visited the Lgoon in front of the Kingfisher hide at Teifi marshes on evening of 27th.
More thoughts on Canada Geese – I have not seen more laughably ridiculous behaviour from any birds than the canada geese on the Bass Lagoon at the Teifi marshes. A pair wandering around inspecting other nests – i.e. the mute swans’, which must have failed, and another canada goose’s whose young had already left. Then suddenly four more flew in which led to 5 or 10 minutes of absolute mayhem. They obviously have all the food and nesting sites that they need in the lowlands and are clearly very successful. But perhaps they still have some behavioural traits which suit them much better to a life in the Canadian wilderness at much lower densities.
