Pleased to report some news from Simon in Norway.
He has been out recently looking for our bean geese and located a flock of 163 birds north of Oslo in the staging area that he located last autumn.
He has been able to take some shots of this flock and they can be seen on his blog. oslobirder.blogspot.co.uk.
Also some news from Thomas Heincke that some of our birds have been seen in Sweden at Lake Brosjon.
I was out on the Slamannan Plateau this morning for a look around and saw no early arrivals. Overnight I heard Pinkfeet coming through central Scotland so a movement from Iceland has taken place. I believe there are Pinks now at Aberlady. Always a good place at dawn/dusk to see the spectacle. Montrose Basin have also probably got Pinks there now.
