Tues 2nd March



One day last week while looking out the kitchen window I saw this odd looking goose. It was with some Greylags and a few Whitefronts and quite noticeable with having so much white. After speaking with Malcolm, it was put down to probably being a Greylag hybrid, a hybrid with a domestic goose or even possibly a partial albino. Whatever it was, I have not seen it again!
Still on Geese, and Tracey sent through the figures for last weeks' count, in total there were 37,434 Barnacle Geese and 6,515 Whitefronts. Thanks for the figures again Tracey.
This afternoon, there were 30 Greylags across in one of our fields, it is not often we get any geese here at home at all.
