Sunshine and geese
As I said the second day with the geese saw much better weather.
The next day………..
The weather was much better the second day in Urahoro. At first the geese were in a different area from the day before. Except for a few Whooper Swan and Bean Geese. The long neck/bill and head shape seem to indicate Taiga Bean Goose.
But presently other species arrived including Cackling Geese. We had seen these flocks newly arrive around 4 weeks previously.

Cackling Goose aka Lesser Canada Goose, before this year I’d thought of it as a really rare bird here but in 2020 I’ve seen lots of them.
