Whoopers
42 Whooper Swans at Cold Edge Dams today was a nice surprise. Unfortunately they flew off towards Fly Flats soon after these pics were taken. Found out later from a local that they were present the previous day.
I'd looked at dusk last night from Cold Edge Road for Whoopers but on my bike so no bins. Can't believe even I missed 40 odd!!! They must have been tucked in side of the bottom dam.
Great shots Nick and a special find with so many. I will check Fly Flatts in the morning if it's not foggy just in case they dropped in there and decided to stay overnight !!
Copies are available at £6.00 each from the GO local store at Woodlesford, Pellon price . Hopefully they will also be available at the Fox and Goose Hebden Bridge ,
