WWT Caerlaverock : 12th October 2013
Before returning to Manchester we drove over to WWT Caerlaverock to see how the autumn migration was looking on the opposite side of Scotland and that was exactly what we saw. The air was full of Whooper Swans and Barnacle Geese flying in skeins all over the sky flying in all sorts of directions as some arrived there for the first time this year and others were re-locating to the fields for the day. A truly wild and wonderful sight. And the birds were not the only surprise for us either !
