The end of the Pier Show163 viewsdespite being good numbers(20K+), I think a lack of raptors meant the Starlings didn't need to pull any kidney/sausage/heart etc shapes & instead just flocked en masse - bring on the Peregrines I say!

Whooper Swan163 viewsWhilst driving down Fluke Hall Lane, Pilling, I turned a corner to see this Whooper Swan running towards me with a tractor right behind it, when the swan saw me coming it veered off the road into the hedgerow & became entancled in the branches there. After watching it for a while it became apparent it was stuck, so I phoned the RSPCA, who agreed to send someone out & asked me to wait with the swan until they arrived.
whooper_050208dd.jpg
Whooper Swan163 viewsGotcha - within the hour a young lady from the RSPCA arrived, she was absolutely brilliant. She quickly but carefully grabbed the swan & removed it from the hedgerow with the miimum of fuss, she was obviously very confident handling the bird, I wouldn't have fancied getting in range of it's beak.
