BAIKAL TEAL KILNSEA WETLANDS MAY 2019

As you may already be aware the BBRC recently announced the rather controversial news that they consider that the drake Baikal Teal seen at Kilnsea Wetlands last May (and elsewhere in the UK) a likely escapee rather than wild and as such have placed the bird in Category E which deems it uncountable for the purpose of the Yorkshire Listers League. The drake seen at Flamborough in April 2013 remains in Category A so is still countable for the purpose of the Yorkshire Listers League. If you didn't see the Flamborough bird but added the Kilnsea bird to your tally you will need to remove it and  also let us know. Thank you
