Turkey and goose
Just three birders out doing Old Moor area today. I will spare the other two 'saddo's' the embarrassment. Healthy counts included 32 Cormorants, 21 Goosanders, and four Shelduck. Two Redshank were on Wath Ings whilst good numbers of Fieldfares and Redwings lined the surrounding bushes. The only sign of migration was a skein of 62 Pink-footed Geese that passed over Old Moor and made a few minutes touch down at Broomhill before moving off west, no doubt encouraged to do so by the Peregrine that alighted in the same field. Christmas dinner beckoned!
