Garganey - 1994

Passage migrant. Not recorded in November or December

Mathew (1894) described the Garganey as an annual summer visitor, while Lockley et al. ( 1949 ) provide four additional records of 10 birds.

It is now almost annual in occurrence, up to six usually occurring on fresh waters near the coast, such as Trefeiddan and Marloes Mere, between March and June, less regularly from July to October. There are three records for February and one of four birds together in Dale Roads on 10 January 1968.
