John you should have thrown it a bit of cake.
I twitched it about mid day, didn't even have to get out of the car so didn't get wet, unlike Sunday when I went to Trisant Lakes to look for the Ring-neck Duck. It rained all the time and I got soaked but I did get a picture of the Whooper swans using my ancient watercolour technology, as I walked down to Pwll Rhosrhydd I flushed a group of 5 Snipe another year tick and in fact the first I've seen in 3years, the only other birds on the water were 7 Tufties and a fem Goldeneye.
Thank you Tom for the info about the gull.
