Vigo Hears About Brexit! - a photo on Flickriver

Vigo Hears About Brexit!

            It appears even Vigo, the Bearded Vulture that has been roaming around England for the last 4 months has heard of Brexit and has headed home.
After a brief sojourn in Northamptonshire she then spent most of the summer in Yorkshire and Derbyshire before making  guest appearances in Norfolk, Lincolnshire, Cambridgeshire, Bedfordshire, London (presumably), Sussex and Kent, she was last seen heading out over the Channel on Thursday 15th October with favourable northerly winds, having made an earlier, aborted attempt the same day. Clearly Brexit is on her mind and wants out of here now before the going gets too tough.
Seriously though, thanks for the memories and safe travels! You made many people happy, not least The Peak District tourist trade! Bon voyage!
This will be my final photo from my last close encounter a week ago today..... unless you return :)
