Pink-footed Geese - 1000 + flew over the A149 in the Titchwell and Thornham area coming from the Brancaster Bay saltmarsh and flying inland towards Docking.
- virtually non-stop series of skeins for 20 minutes.
- a really impressive sight plus the inevitable deep honking calls mixed with the sharper, higher ones.
