Also just seen a skein of Pinkfeet heading SW over Woodhall Spa - thought there were about 80 on the brief view I got. Same skein or do I overestimate?

Also in the area, 3 drake Goosander yesterday late afternoon - about 500m upriver from Kirkstead Bridge.

Hi all.

I had around 800 in 5 skeins today at RAF Waddington from 0950 - 1000 from the approach at the A15 end across the airfield and as far south as Coleby/Harmston at the southern end.

All the best.

Brian.

Rob I think your number is better, its probably underestimation by myself as I saw them at a good distance but pretty sure same skein - timings and directions concur.

Posted the observation hoping someone would track them further, many thanks.
