570 Pinkfeet went south past Whitburn Obs by 10.15 today. The Geese were the highlight on a very quiet watch. It was a dire start this morning but as last week when the Doc and Poppy arrived they brought a few birds with them. No sooner had they sat down when the Pinks started.This is what i saw in order of appearance
