Pink Footed Goose & Bewicks Swan

Today was not intended to be a birding day, but with texts from Richard & John reporting a Pink Footed Goose near Bretford with the Grey Lag Geese, it would have been rude not to go! Pink Footed Goose was a first for me in Warwickshire, so well pleased! While in the area, a quick trip to the other side of the river to view the Bewicks Swan, in with the Mute Swans.
