    26th October 2023 – WWT Slimbridge

    We were really surprised how few birds there were on the pools at Slimbridge this morning. There were rangers working on fixing fences nearby which may have disturbed some of them and, with the weather still very mild, others may not yet have arrived.

    Some white fronted geese had arrived last week but they were too far away for me to photograph.

    Five snipe and three redshank saved the day for me.
