The Slamannan flock of bean geese has now increased to c160 birds. It was good today to see that tag V6 who is now 10+ years old has returned once more for the winter.
Good too as it confirms we have part of the Swedish group of birds that come south through Saffle in Sweden from Dalarna County in the north.
We are however still short of our total of 218 birds of last winter.
