European White-fronted Geese













in spite of the huge influx into North Lincs this winter none of the flocks of White-fronts have been very approachable so this party of 7 with the local Greylags was a welcome chance to get some better pics; I saw them last weekend but was too busy to follow them up until yesterday; the sun broke through early afternoon but by the time I got there it had just about gone -- there appears to be a 4 and a 3 the four seem to be a pair with 2 juvs one of which has a rather dark head and looks a bit more Greenland like but the bill is clearly pink and typically sized
