Pintail at Llyn Coed-y-Dinas

 Martin Neil has sent this photo of a pair of Pintail at L CyD on 24 Jan. Other recent records there include 3 Shoveler and 14 Snipe on 22 Jan. 200 Lapwings were on the Welshpool Airport fields on 21 Jan, and a female Blackcap was in a garden at Carreghofa near Llanymynech on the same day. 

Thanks Martin, also to Tony Coatsworth, Claire Labrum and Claire Backshall for the other records.

  2. These are not a "pair" they are an adult and immature drake. Nice photo though.
