News update on the Bean Goose flock

A large flock of 135 birds were found yesterday well away from Luckenburn. They were in a field north west of Slamannan.

They may well use this area for the next day or so. Best place to view is from the Playing field on the Greengairs Road. A telescope is essential as the birds are some distance off.

Trying to approach the flock in this field is not likely to succeed as the birds are very way and will see your approach. The fields also have farming stock in them at present so please stay out. Thanks.

Another group of birds (74) were seen to the west of this area. That gives a new high for this year of 209 birds.
