Pleased to report that all of our birds seem to be doing well in this stormy spell of weather. The flock is well split up and probably in roughly four to five separate groups.
Yesterday two groups were at Hillend Slamannan, one group of 17 north of the river and one of 37 on the south side. They have been using this area for about a week now for feeding and possibly roosting.
Garbethill Muir is being well used by a group of unknown size and the information is coming in live from birds that we caught this autumn. Some of the tags are not giving off information all of the time due to their batteries being low. The lack of sunshine recently is the cause of this.
Some roosting is taking place on Darnrig Moss and also at Fannyside Lochs/Muir.
