I have a feeling the 2 whoopers may have been Bewick's.2 Bewicks were at leeshaw on the 10th nov.the 2 birds i had were heading low west and with the strong westerly winds /gales.It is not unreasonable to asume they took refuge at leeshaw for the day .i felt sure at the time they were Whoopers with long neck and large size.But YB Swans are notoriosly difficult in flight.?
