Latest news from Norway

Great news this morning that 220 bean geese seen together on the Glomma River. That would look like the bulk of the Slamannan flock have joined up before heading north to breed.

What fantastic ability they have to navigate such distances and recall their well known haunts. Here at home much work is still being done on the Slamannan Plateau field systems so that we can have a really close look at the fields they use compared to the fields that they don't use. Brian Minshull my technical expert has been beavering away for weeks now sorting out all the data collected by us over the past month or so.
