Southport, Merseyside. UK Weather. 19th Sept, 2019. Sunny start to the day over the RSPB Ribble Estuary nature reserve. Huge flocks of migrant pink foot geese have arrived from northern climes to pick over the remains of the harvest spread over the fields and wetlands of Lancashire. Pink-footed geese feed on improved grassland and wetland marshes situated ideally near their night-time roost sites. About 280,000, 80% of world population of these geese winter in the UK.
