Water Pipit, Common Sand, &....

..... a report of a Bonaparte's Gull on the Teifi today...no further details on the gull and we haven't refound, but the Teifi will be well watched over the weekend.
The Water Pipit was feeding below the outflow at the Boat Builders - usual site.
The Common Sandpiper was feeding in Cardigan by the Indian restaurant on the boat - usual site.
Small waders were very active on the high tide today, 1 Greenshank, 1 Sanderling, c16 Ringed Plover and c 50 Dunlin. A lone Golden Plover...looked lonely near the Cliff Hotel, a sole flying Lapwing looked lost....3 Goldeneye on the river in the reserve.
