| We decided to head up north to Leighton Moss not really expecting to see a great deal. Being an optimist I’d hoped we might be able to get a decent view and possibly a photo of the Marsh Tits. However trying to get a photo of them at one of the RSPB’s most popular reserves is far from easy.
Interesting to come across a small group of Snow Geese. In this country the Snow Goose is a rare vagrant arriving in the Autumn with Pink Footed and Barnacle Geese. However to further complicate things in addition to the arrivals from the Canadian Tundra there’s also a small feral population normally living in Scotland.

 Whatever their origin they’re certainly attractive birds and as of mid February 2012 they were still at Leighton Moss. |
 Safety in numbers. Snowgeese with the resident Greylags at Leighton Moss February 2012. |
