We woke to the sound of Barnacle Geese overhead this morning. The overcast and windy conditions didn't help matters down at Southerness Point at low tide, so I headed inland to Loaningfoot to have a last look at the geese before heading back home to Lancs. Nice to see 11 Whooper Swans (scarce around the Solway at the moment) in the same field as the Barnies.Mrs B and I headed towards the border calling in at Annan, but the tide was in and there were hardly any waders and no Goldies on the shore. We checked out Browhouses for future reference where we saw 7 Whoopers before hitting the M6 and then back to Lancs.
One week to go until the next trip: Ecuador.
