Greylags on Leeshaw

Bye the way, this morning (Monday 22/10/07) at 08.40 hrs, when just about to set off to Manchester, Marian spotted a large flock of geese moving from Penistone Hill area towards Leeshaw - I checked them out in my bins and there were circa 40/50 Canada geese in a smaller leading group and circa 100 Greylag geese just behind. All birds went onto Leeshaw. I rang Rod Proctor & he had had these birds yesterday at Leeshaw - he had 92 Greylag and I think he said 50 to 60 Canada Geese - these Greylags may well be the geese we heard at the weekend.

 

Cheers

Howard.
