Latest picture from Simon in Norway

Our flock continue to stay around the Akershus area north east of Oslo and on the Glomma river area. Simon on his own blog has now changed his flock total from 144 to 142 birds.

Simon is now off up north looking for migrants so we wish him well on his birding trip.

Whilst awaiting our bean goose flock to arrive there is plenty activity in and around Gardrum Moss with a large flock of Pinkfeet c800 birds in the area. They have been feeding locally and around the northern side of Bathgate often near the A801 near Torphichen

Canada Geese too are present in and around roost time on the Gardrum Moss and Loch Elrig area.
I would be pleased to hear of any reports you have on dates and numbers of these species.
