Holkham is famous for it's skeins of wintering geese and none more so than the thousand upon thousand of Pink-footed geese. You couldn't help but marvel at the spectacle of sheer numbers crossing the dusk laden skies,let alone the cacophonous 'wink,wink' call that seemed to drown out all other species. Our late afternoon and early evening walks from Wells to the pinewoods provided us a spectacle never to be forgotten. Here are a few distant images of the hordes of Pink-foots. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

that must have been fantastic to watch Dave, you were all so lucky to see that. I've never seen the Pink Footed goose yet, so you can imagine how I am. ![]() Fantastic photos Dave.

More fantastic photos there Dave Thanks to an encounter with a couple at St Tiggy's, I actually manage to recognise the odd Herring Gull now - ummm, as long as it's a juvenile, that is
