A visit to Tan-y-bwlch this afternoon failed to produce any Water Pipits, but I was surprised to see two quite distant grey geese grazing in the flooded fields alongside the Curlews. Thinking they looked more like Pinkfeet than Greylags, I got my scope onto them and realised they had obvious orange legs, orange-banded bills, and dark backs with the characteristic white fringes of Tundra Bean Geese. They were quite wary, keeping well back from the shingle ridge with its walkers and dogs, but seemed relatively settled. The light was too poor for decent photos (and I hadn't brought the scope attachment for my phone!), but here are a couple of record shots:
