Seven bean geese were caught this morning at 0800hrs by a small team from WWT.
An adult pair and their three juveniles were amongst the catch. Incidentally the only juveniles to be seen in the present flock of 137 birds.
Two other adults were caught with one of them being a retrap from 2012.
I will add some pictures when they are available along with new collar numbers. We now have birds again with live feeds which will help us identify where they are feeding/roosting.
Our present flock have come via Norway and we are now waiting on the others who come south via south Sweden/Denmark.
