Sabia and Sabiana touched down on the Rushy at around 1:50pm. Sabia first arrived at Slimbridge with then mate Sabian, but in 2024 she brought a new mate Sabiana with her. She returned to Slimbridge with Sabiana on the 16th of November 2025.
We're on high alert today as three Bewick's swans were recorded at Newport wetlands in the morning, just over the Severn.

The Bewick's are on the move! Tracked swans are crossing the border from Russia into Estonia or Finland.
