Soggy Llangloffan Fen 17th January

The Cleddau has flooded across the fen this week, creating a classic winter wetland scene with sheets of water in the floodplain valley mire. Today 80-100 teal, 30+ mallard, 15-20 shoveler, 300 lapwing, numerous snipe. Cettis warbler, chiffchaff, willow tits and wintering tree sparrow all in evidence before I had to retreat when the rains came on again.
