We have put together some more pictures of night activity at a roost pond. This behaviour has been unknown to us for nearly 30 years and is very interesting into how the birds bath and preen during the hours of darkness at their roost sites. Click on the following link to see it. View the bean geese at their night time roost.
I attach a screen grab of some of our birds on their staging grounds in Denmark. Fascinating to see how they can find each other after having flown across the North Sea the other day
Two of our GPS tag birds have now flown to Pandrup Denmark on or around 30 January.
In the last two days only one flock of 26/30 birds have been seen on the plateau. It looks like most of the flock have gone.
A full month earlier than 20 odd years ago.
Hopefully we will get some information from the birders in Denmark on how many birds have arrived at their staging post in northern Denmark..
