Snow Goose, Plex Moss


This afternoon I finally caught up with the snow goose that has been on the south Lancs mosslands for a week. It was in a stubble field with pink-footed geese off Plex Moss lane. First seen at Banks Marsh last Friday, it then went missing for a day or two before being reported from Martin Mere as a lesser snow goose. 

Having seen photos from Banks Marsh and then from Birkdale a few days ago I had my doubts about it being a lesser, but now having seen it in the field it's clearly a greater snow goose. I've never seen a bill like that on a lesser snow goose.

So the final question is, is it tickable? ✔️Too late, it's on my list...
