Flying post on a flying twitch!
After work, off I toddled and from Cockwood Crossing [aided by nice light and of course a Big Scope], I saw this little thingy;
Cackling Goose
with Brents.
At range.
Lots of range.
Colours are off;
the bird is actually a lovely rich chocolatey brown
and its cheek patch is white.
Yes, they were hiding behind the yachts, right out in the middle of the estuary. Well, they were for about 10 minutes, then a considerate chap with a red fleece and green wellies showed up and flushed them all waaaay upriver. Cheers, mate!
Also some nice waders [including 23 Barwits], the Slav, and a couple of flyover Grey Wags.
Sorted. Right, I'm off to bed...
