The wetlands just inland from the Ribble Estuary in Lancashire are one of Europe's most important wintering grounds for geese, ducks and swans. Throughout the winter months they're home to tens of thousands of pink footed geese and nearly two thousand whooper swans. It's a terrific spectacle but not always a welcome sight for local farmers because birds like these can strip a field of grass or crop overnight. Caz Graham visits the Martin Mere Wetlands and Wildfowl Trust reserve at Martin Mere to meet the birdlife and hear about the difficulties of farming adjacent to one of Britain's biggest bird tables.
