The pink-footed goose flock which is spending time feeding just south of Culcheth, viewable
from Holcroft Lane, has increased in number this week to around 800-1000 birds. I've spent quite a bit of time looking through them over the past few days but
haven't been able to pick out anything unusual since the Greenland whitefront last week, but it's just nice to have the opportunity
to watch geese so close to home. They get disturbed quite a lot and move
between several fields during the day, often landing out of view, so they can be quite difficult.
