As we approached the farm buildings there was a flock of 16 Geese, which Bryan shouted out "Snow Geese".
They breed in extreme North East Siberia and can only be viewed as a vagrant or an escapee. I love to see Geese and I kept them in Cornwall. They were a joy to see spread out across the stubble feeding but I have to view them as domestic.
We saw very few Larks, of any description but we did hear both Crested and Thekla. This Thekla Lark stayed long enough to be photographed.
Our last bird of the day was our best bird of the day in so much that it was passing through going South. A Willow Warbler.
This was our last visit to Yecla, next is Clot.
