Dark clouds over Queensbury

 Dark overhead, bright to the south and west
  Clouds like an umbrella over Queensbury, midday.

              New for Raggalds flood, Stock Doves
                                 Distant record shots only.

A grey damp morning improving late p.m. with an interesting sky around midday. A large black roof of cloud   was over Queensbury with bright skies below the cloud base to the East, West and South.
Fewer Starlings were in the park today meaning many will have moved on from the nest sites to farm fields where food is more plentiful.
Up to 5 Goldfinch were on the garden feeders today with a visit from the local Sparrowhawk which once again went away hungry thanks to the feeder protector rods .
Passed the Raggalds flood mid afternoon briefly where around 200 Starlings were feeding in the grass and a visit this evening found a new sp. for the site with 3 Stock Doves present along with 2 Lapwings, 2 Pied Wagtails and several Swallows.
