  • Almost the whole world population of Baikal Teal spend the winter on the Guem River near Gunsan, South Korea. Watching these birds gather and take flight in the evening, before they head to rice fields to feed, is an amazing spectacle. The first time I saw this I could not believe that half a million Baikal Teal, Sibrionetta formosa, would all be in one place, in one flock. Almost the entire world population of Baikal Teal winter in South Korea in one flock.

      The first time I saw this I was amazed that almost all of the world population of Baikal Teal were in one place.

    What a great sight. Had a single Baikal Teal last year just 20 minutes walk from me here in East Yorkshire. It stayed for several weeks.

      Baikal teal is always a superb bird, whether there is just one of them or a whole flock. In the process of finalising arrangements for the next tour I lead in South Korea in Jan 2024 right now.

      Where in East Yorkshire was it? I used to live up there.

      Swinemoor, down near the River Hull at Beverley. There was loads of people came to see it. It was there for several weeks. Currently there is a pair of Chinese geese down there. Obviously released or escaped from somewhere.

      Goodness gracious. I birding Swinemoor a lot between 2004-2007 when I was studying at Bishop Burton College. I found my first Pectoral Sandpiper there, Marsh Warbler and lots of interesting pasage waders each spring and autumn.
