They're back! Right on cue there's been a big movement of pink-footed geese into the UK from Iceland over the past couple of days, and these were the first I have seen this autumn, over the garden at 7:15am this morning. These are heading east to winter in Norfolk, but many thousands will overwinter in the north west.
It was a remarkable 10 minutes in the garden, shortly after
these flew over I watched a hobby flying around over the garden. It wasn't
moving through, it seemed to be looking for prey and there has been a hobby
hanging around at Pennington Flash for at least the past week.
