The Breeding Season

As from now until the end of the breeding season birds of a sensitive nature will be omitted from this blog due to a small percentage of undesirables who take their pleasure from egg collecting, nest destroying and the killing and trapping of birds.
Reports of non breeding birds moving through the area will still be published. BS

Ogden pm visit

The east fringe of the wood, used to be Redstart area.


The one that was left behind , Pink Footed Goose


Seems quite happy with the Canadas


A pleasant evening and the only evening free this week so took advantage of a quick trip to Ogden.
The east fringe of the wood and moor edge held 8 Mistle Thrush with several singing Chaffinch.
The water was quiet other than the PF Goose found by NK this morning, see Queensburybirder, was still there along with Canadas which all left the water to graze on the shoreline.
A small group of LBB gulls were on the water before moving off towards Mixenden. Passerines were quiet due to the time of day.

8 Mistle Thrush
9 Canadas
1 Pink Footed Goose
