Common Teal female - Anas crecca

Photographed at Magor Marsh, Monmouthshire, Wales, UK.

Please can you sign this petition to stop the proposed M4 over the Gwent Levels. I feel strongly about this because it is a place I visit a lot. The damage to the Gwent Levels along with Magor Marsh and the Newport Wetlands will be irreparable!


Please look at my website bobswildlife.co.uk. There is a photo of an Starling,  and  the Smew by Dave Key  in the 'Guest photographer'

  22. Love the subtle touches of color on the Teals ... they don't have to be showy to be beautiful. You really captured the colors .

  23. She is just beautiful, Bob!
    I love the little "splash" of green on her wing.
    Your photographs of her are magnificent.

  26. Hi Bob. Your delightful images of the Teal at Magor Marsh give good reason to support the appeal over the proposed M4 extension. I have now signed up to the appeal, but was surprised to see that this appeal was started two years ago.

    Sorry I've not visited your blog for a while - I've been away on holiday in Devon for a week. Best wishes - - - Richard
