Hi all

Checked the tip at Stainby today and had a minimum 17 Red Kites (including 8 in one bins view), better was a fly-through skein of 94 White-fronted Geese, evidently part of a general exodus from the continent of this species in recent days. Photos on punkbirder.

cheers

Alex

47 White-fronts at Alkborough for the last 3 days feeding in with the local Greylags; a mix of adults and first-winters -- otherwise the number of birds can be counted on a few hands and most of them are Mallard

Hi all,
To be honest ive no idea where Stainby is?i guess south lincs?,good news for Red kites!!,still scarce up north lincs,hopefully the spread will continue to northern lincs,as long as gamekeepers keep their mits off them,have not been out far during this atrociuos weather,nice to get some diff geese around thou,all quite on the raptor front-it appears?
