The whooper swan is a very rare breeding bird in the UK, but has much larger populations that spend winter here after a long journey from Iceland. It has more yellow on its yellow-and-black bill than the Bewick’s Swan.
2 different sightings within Carmarthenshire both happened just last week, at the end of November 2021
Up to date sightings of all different birds in Carmarthenshire can be found at Recent sightings – Carmarthenshire Bird Club including many from the coast around Ferryside
