The last of the pink-feet


Pink-footed geese are in the process of disappearing from North West England and heading north to breed in Iceland. Today I came across a flock of 2000+ at Aldcliffe marsh and these will probably be amongst the last that I see for a few months. There's said to be a tundra bean goose with them, but I struggle with them at the best of times and the distance combined with the heat haze today defeated me once again. A spectacular sight nonetheless.
