Second flock this month (also 10th Oct), never recorded before. Less intense (fewer overlapping calls) but closer, and lasting 120 seconds, surely means quite a few birds (typical goose flock passes in <30 seconds), surely a lot more than 10. The Moor Green birds don't seem to move much, so where are these recored flocks coming from/going to?

Recorded, calls identified by online nocmig group. Substantial flock, calling continually for 90s ... local (Moor Green) flock of 20 birds a possibility, but probably more birds than that.
