“Since the war, migrant greylags have virtually deserted the Duddon estuary, so it is a source of great satisfaction that the WAGBI greylags have taken to roosting on the sands in mid-winter, flighting to and from the reserve.”

“Greylags used to concentrate on British estuaries, eating roots of rushes and sedges, as they do in other parts of their range.”
