Fishing styles, 7th January 2017

A very quick visit to WWT Llanelli with fellow Lesbos traveller Nick, saw us in the British Steel hide, in murky conditions.

 A nice range of waders with Greenshank, Redshank, Lapwing, Black-tailed Godwit and a lonely Dunlin, with a smattering of Teal, Mallard and a nice grazing flock of Wigeon provided some interest.

 A decent sized flock of Greylags flew onto the scrape in classic skein fashion.

Decent views of Water Rail and feeding Little Egret and Cormorant.
